Top 10 places to pull in the UK

Seduction is simmering beneath The Kiss in London, scousers are getting friendly in The Albert Dock and Birmingham students find a balti is all it takes to spice up their love life. Seek out the top ten places to pull in the UK

The Kiss, Tate Britain, London
There's not a huge amount left to the imagination in Auguste Rodin's erotic sculpture (1901-4) of adulterous lovers Paolo and Francesca clinched in an eternal embrace. His marble hand grasps her thigh, her arm is thrown around his neck. Their lips are interlocked forever. Stand still as a statue and pout? Nothing happens? Then sink your teeth into a cheese and smoked salmon bagel on Brick Lane 24 hours Bagel Bakery. When you're appetite is sated, find someone to share your cab home with.

Any Curry House, Selly Oak, Birmingham
This restaurant is full of spices and students sitting around huge tables drinking Cobra beer. Join a group on a big night out and share a balti, the Kashmiri-derived speciality Birmingham is famous for.

August Festival Fever, Edinburgh
For one heady month, the historic city is engulfed with an exotic arty crowd. Choose an avant-garde production and seat yourself strategically beside a hunk before the lights dim. When the final curtain falls, suggest a drink or meal on the Oloroso roof terrace - to discuss the show, of course!

The Albert Dock, Liverpool
As irresistible as the pull of the tide, the sparkling River Mersey lapping onto the Albert Docks has drawn generations of scousers on the pull. Be seduced in the trendy restaurants and bars within the renovated docks or by the riverside.

Fistral Beach, Newquay, Cornwall
Rain or shine, surfers with their rippled physiques are riding the waves. Strike up a conversation about the surfing conditions or ask a cutie for the best place to take a lesson. Feeling less athletic than that? Stetch out on the sand, get out your sun tan lotion, then ask a suitable stranger to protect you from dangerous rays on that part of your back you can't reach. You never know, they may have some Sex Wax in their pocket (for waxing their boards, silly!)

Mantos (Bar 46) Manchester
The whole of Canal Street is a haven for Manchester's gay scene but this is where it started in the early 90s. The bar is well-stocked, the beats are hard, happy and uplifting, and the crowd is trendy and friendly. When the sun shines, the bar unpeels its retractable roof to let the light stream in. When you've found who you're looking for, wine and dine at bar-restaurant Spirit next door.

Open all hours Tesco, Leeds
Seek out romance among the courgettes and cucumbers. This central Leeds Tesco is on Roundhay Road, just a ten-minute ride from the centre and it's open 24 hours Monday-Saturday. Eat up fellow shoppers with your eyes and spot the sensitive ones - they'll be lurking by the organic yoghurt and sugar-free muesli.

The Showroom, Sheffield
In the flickering light of a Greta Garbo classic, find your film soulmate in the renovated 1930s Kennings garage and car showroom building. When the film's over, unfold yourself from the plump, crimson seat and plonk yourself on a stool at the bar, which is open till late at weekends.

Mill Lane, Cardiff
Everyone will be checking out the Wales Millennium Centre on Cardiff Bay waterfront, which opened in November 2004. The place to see opera, ballet, dance and musicals, tickets are on sale now. Alternatively, bar hop along bar-lined Mill Lane, Cardiff's café quarter and linger in Russian vodka bar, Moloko.

Beachfront, Brighton
During the day, take your kite and ask a sexy someone to help you launch it. As sun sets, have a drink in one of the many bars and when the party really gets going, stroll the galleries, strut the clubs and linger the length of the pebbled beach.
