Re: Thoughts about Valentines day
Was the mrs' birthday last week so we're off to dinner with a voucher she got for our favourite restaurant.
I'm not romantic enough to think of anything else for her, although I did do the dishes without being moaned at yesterday, so that should count for something.

Re: Thoughts about Valentines day
Same as in England, we get each other a card and he usually gets me a bunch (not bouquet) of flowers. I cook him his dinner (as usual) and that's it.
We got the class list home last week so my daughter will be sending either a cheap card to everyone or candy of some sort.

Let's hear your views. I would have put this into a poll but couldn't think of enough options....

Clydegirl's correct it was Are You Being Served. Mollie Sugden played Mrs Slocombe and John Inman played Mr Humphries the gay guy. 'I'm free!' was his tag line.
