So then- Valentines day
Happy Valentines everyone- for tomorrow :wub:
So, I am dieing to hear what you boys consider romantic and what you are treating your loved ones to? I'm sure there must be some trainwrecks waiting to happen! Ladies- any high expectations? :wub::wub::wub: xxx |
Re: So then- Valentines day
Gave the mrs the midnight collection from ghd (for wedding anniversary) and the stuff you put on the hair to stop it burning for valentines day. Made up for the xmas present, she thought a satnav was a shit present.
I got a signed Peanuts comic strip which I'm quite chuffed with. Neither very romantic, but it would appear we are both happy. Going for a meal tomorrow at one of the restaurants at the souk. Brian |

I ran to the loo with my hand clamped firmly over my mouth until I could spit the offending chocolate out and then I vigourously brushed my teeth. Coffee in any shape or form makes me feel violently sick. I did feel a little bad when I saw the look on his face though.

Oh for a lady who prefers a bacon sarnie to over-hyped Valentine's Day marketing nonsense. [sighs forlornly...]
I loathe the proliferation of red and pink fluffy shit that you find everywhere these days. Even when I was a child it was a low-key event and ewe knew that cards were supposed to be unsigned and from a mystery admirer. The whole thing is just a marketing wonk's wet dream and bought into by morons with no imagination. If you can only be 'romantic' one day a year by buying a bunch of red roses, a teddy bear and a crappy card, it's a pretty poor show IMO. And no, I'm not bitter because no one loves me!! |
Re: So then- Valentines day
See meow I beg to differ- yes it is all the card shops expoiting us, however how often do people tell each other they love each other- not often enough- so Valentines day is just a reminder to say it out loud just in case you don't say it enough already. And of course if your lover wants to whip you off for a romantic weekend whats wrong with that- yes he should do it more often but sometimes we forget to say and show how we feel and a little reminder is just what we need, in the same way as christmas is a reminder that you should see your family. Feel the love Meow :wub:

I hate being told that I have to be romantic on a certain day. And Valentine's Day is supposed to be for single people to declare their interest, not for old marrieds to sit in restaurants and not talk to each other. Plenty of love and romance in my life year round, but it's real and not just for one day. :) |
