Default Who else had a relapse about Valentines Day?

Hi there folks,

Just wondered if anyone either UK/OZ/NZ had a slight memory relapse and forgot it was that lovey dovey day where we suddenly declare undying love?

I had to run to Tescos (local supermarket) and get a romantic (or as near as you can get from there) card for my Hubby!

How about you?

Regards

My wife got loads of lilies (in pots and still growing, good for next year too!) but no card plus as usual I cooked dinner (for 4 these days not 2) and yes there was Champagne though I reckon I swigged most of it.

As usual I bought a card hid it, couldn't find it so had to buy another one. Needless to say I found the original afterwards.

I got a card and my favourite musical on DVD - Cabaret. The reason I like it so much is when we went to Oz last year it was the only decent film that they were showing on the way out and back. I must have watched it 4 times!!
I came off the plane singing all of the tunes, much to hubbies annoyance!

Must go.... twiddliy, diddliy dee, two ladies, twiddliy, diddliy dee, two ladies it's two for fun!!

Valentine cards were exchanged without a hitch, but I've just had to turn to my other half and say "sorry darling, I've just remembered it's our anniversary tomorrow and I haven't got you a card yet!" To which he replied "don't worry about it, I forgot as well!"

Not bad when you consider that we are celebrating 20 years!!

Waiting for news on the visa processing is now like the last few weeks of pregnancy. You know it's got to happen at some point but it seems to go on forever. I now feel as if I'm at the overdue stage.
