Valentine's, what is everyone doing?

[Gula]

What is everyone doing for Valentine's day today. My husband and I are doing the 2for1 Waitrose dine in meal then go out for a drink in East Dulwich!

[Jeremy]

Staying home with our 6 day old baby! And a fish and chip supper.

[Louisa]

I will be staying in today downing a few bottles of warming malbec and then maybe ordering a Chinese tonight (for myself). I don't sign up to these middle class marketing events such as St Valentines day.

Btw Gula, I love how you managed to fit 'East Dulwich' and 'Waitrose' into one sentence, well done :D

Louisa.

[MrBen]

My lady has gone to Prague. I'm not sure why. I think she's back on Saturday...

Anyways, I sent her a text message and she sent me a nice one back with a picture of the Charles Bridge.

Does that count?

[MrBen]

oops didn't realise - big congrats to you Jeremy. :-)

[KidKruger]

Mine's just left for Sweden so I'll be decorating, admin, chopping wood and grocery shopping.

[fernado]

cracking one out in front of the telly

[Louisa]

fernado do you have lots of mixed nuts left over from Christmas still? So do I, it's always a chore worrying about what to do with them. Great idea btw.

Louisa.

[titch juicy]

Going to Tottenham Court Road edition of Franca Manca and a walk around Fitzrovia/Bloomsbury and possibly a pub or two. But not for Valentines Day

[Jeremy]

"A few" bottles of malbec? Like your style, Louisa.

[Louisa]

Jeremy, when there are two bottles in the cupboard there's no point drinking one ;)

We've got a gig tonight, so will be Upstairs at The Old Nun's Head, with hopefully a lovely crowd of people who want to spend Valentine's Day night (as it were) listening to the very excellent James Findlay and Alex Cumming (shameless plug).

If you're by yourself, let us know and we'll introduce you to people.

If you fancy joining us (door 7.45pm) details are here http://thegooseisout.com/james-findlay/

ETA: But I'm rather hungover from too many pints of Runner at last night's shanty evening at The Ivy House :(

[New Girl]

2 for ?20 m&s. Had to venture in to town for it though. If only we had an m&s here........(jokes)

[pommie]

me and my partner are having the M&S dine in meal for 2 and then just relaxing at home, cant really go out with two little ones

[The Minkey]

It's Valentine's Day? Crap.

[Salsaboy]

Nothing.

[uncleglen]

If people conducted proper, up front, honest relationships there would be no need for all this hearts and flowers valentines commercial tripe.

I'm also doing nothing.

Maybe you & I should have joined Louisa, opened another bottle of malbec & had our own celebration!

[bob]

Off to the Patch for some wine later.

Congratulations, lovely news!

(about the baby, not the fish & chips) :)

Edit: stayed in, made fantastic (modest) pulao, dhal, chutney & flatbreads. Don't go in for all the hearts and flowers stuff but I always send a card to the one I love.

[Robert Poste's Child]

Eating a pork pie, pastry first, then flopping on the sofa with Albert Campion.

[Burbage]

Sitting in my flat, listening to the howling wind, watching the damp run down the walls and wondering, of all the Valentine's cards I got, which I should have sent.

[LadyDeliah]

I treated myself to an indian head massage, a full body massage and a facial :-)

[maxxi]

Staring out of the window at blokes trying to protect their bouquets from the howling wind and marvelling at the chutzpah of opening a 'pre-loved' jewellery shop the day AFTER Hallmark's favourite time of year.

Oh, and slurping down some of Bruno's un-oaked draft red after a bloody steak and broccoli in garlic and chilli.

[Otta]

It's just gone 11pm and I've just gotten my 2 year old to bed. Wife passed out in bed with said 2 year old, whilst I stare at telly with a beer.

Pretty standard night.
