Last updated on: May 26, 2004 19:01 IST

A dating Web site, www.itsadatingthing.com, has compiled Britain's top 30 chat-up lines.

And according to the survey the lousiest is: "I'm here. What were your other two wishes?"

According to the Web site, it conducted the survey to give its members "an indication of the things not to say to get a new relationship off the ground".

The other 29 in decreasing order of corniness are:

- Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk by again?

- Nice dress. Can I talk you out of it?

- That dress would look great - on my bedroom floor.

- I may not be Fred Flintstone but I could make your Bedrock

- I seem to have lost my telephone number, may I borrow yours?

- Get your coat, you've pulled.

- Here's 20p. Call your mum and tell her you won't be home tonight.

- If you think you'll regret it in the morning, we could sleep until afternoon.

- Is it hot in here or is it you?

- Does God know you've escaped from heaven?

- I think I've seen you on the cover of Playboy.

- I'm new around here. Could you direct me to your flat?

- If I could arrange the alphabet I would put U and I together.

- There's something wrong with my eyes - I can't taken them off you.

- I'd really like to see how you look when I'm naked.

- I wish you were a door so I could bang you all day.

- Do you sleep on your stomach or can I?

- You must be tired. You've been running through my mind all evening.

- What's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this.

- You look like someone I know.

- Do you come here often?

- Drink up - you've pulled.

- How do you like your eggs in the morning?

- I feel like Richard Gere because I'm standing next to the Pretty Woman.

- You're great at fishing because you've caught me – hook, line and sinker.

- Bond. James Bond.

- You look so good I could drink your bath water.

- Are you free tonight, or will it cost me?

- If I said you had a beautiful body would you hold it against me?
