Oh giggirl...


Please no blood letting, it's really messy


Remember "they" stoned poor ol'St Valentine to death


Think of it more as a "Hallmark Cards" cash bonanza day


Stay focused on that



It works for Mrs W**F

Just got this really good advice from a computing newsletter.


"If you have a carbon-based loved one in your life, might I suggest that you turn off the computer for the day and spend it with them. Or else set up a lan network in your house so the two of you can chat via instant messenger."

Aside from most bars/restaurants being packed out with smug couples... no.


When one of my good pals was still single, we did on occasion go out on Valentine's Day, dressed to the nines, with deliberately overtly sexy outfits to a restaurant that was otherwise packed with couples - just to see how many arguments were caused when men's eyes strayed to the table of girls with lots of cleavage or leg that looked like they were having a ball. >:D<

me too!!


And Giggirl...every Sunday in ED feels like that LOL....:))

You could always go out and celebrate Chinese New Year instead or treat it like any other day as said above. Erm....yes there's always the rugby .....:-S

Even when I was in a relationship we never "celebrated" Valentine's day in a big way but it is nice to get surprise choccies and do something fun together too.

Hope you have fun whatever you decide xx

    • If it was limited to a couple of days a year, so we all knew, that would be fine. In the last few years (and it is a recent thing) you get random fireworks going off any time after dusk for half the year. It does more than cause problems for pets and wildlife- it can mean lasting damage and massive expense and hassle for pet owners. All because some get a buzz out of loud bangs.
    • Ohh dear.  Fireworks can be great fun.  Where I used to live the kids would have firework wars/games.  Watching them was more enjoyable than watching  TV. (Which you could hardly hear due to the pops and bangs).  It's not like anyone/anything could stop them. I would still prefer organised public displays that are affordable.   And I agree that fireworks cause problems for wild life, pets and people.   It seems to be one of those things that just happens so we have to put up with it.  But it is still not as problematic here as in other areas in London - that's for sure.
    • I made sure to set off a few today just to rile you guys up 😇😂 Always looking for something to criticise
