Hen Night Dares, Challenges and Forfeits

Dares are almost as essential to a good hen night as a stack of booze and at least one girl who's getting married soon. Most of our favourite games can be spiced up with a sprinkling of forfeits and dares - or you could just do dares and sod the games.

Before you allow any Pinot Grigio to pass your lips, make a list of dares that you can consult at a later, more mullered stage of the evening or weekend. Allow us to get the ball rolling...

1 If you're in a bar or club, con a male stranger into buying you a drink. Bonus points if it costs more than a fiver.

2 Wait until they play a song that the rest of the group agrees is cheesy and tragic. Your dare is to leap up and shout "I love this one!", then sing and dance your heart out. Bonus points for grabbing passers-by and forcing them to dance with you.

3 Tongue-kiss the bride. If you are the bride, tongue-kiss any of your hens.

4 Approach a male stranger returning from the bar with two or three drinks. Take one and say: "Cheers, that's very kind of you!"

5 Perform a condom putting-on lesson for the girls, using a dildo, banana or maybe a marrow if you're feeling optimistic. Bonus points for giving it a blow job. (If you manage to deep-throat the marrow, seek medical advice.)

6 Blag a free drink from the barman.

7 Ask a female stranger for her phone number out of the blue. Do not give any explanation.

8 Approach a stranger of either sex and pretend you've known them for years. Reminisce about old times. The longer you can keep it going, the more drinks the group has to buy you.

9 Emerge from the women's loo with your skirt tucked into your knickers. Keep it there and walk around the pub for at least 10 minutes. If you let on that it's a dare, you must perform two punishment dares.

10 Kiss someone old, someone new, someone borrowed and someone blue - they could be wearing blue, or they could be a policeman or stripper. Your call.

11 Find a married couple and ask them for sexual advice. The more embarrassing the better.

12 Call the bride's mum and say the wedding's off. If she immediately clocks that you're taking the piss, you must perform two punishment dares.
