Happy Valentines


I managed to forget my wallet yesterday, so had no flowers to greet my wife with this morning... However, I was still presented with a very large bar of chocolate despite my error. I will of course be purchasing an extra large bunch of flowers on my way home this evening....

To be fair, we don't really buy into 'Valentines' as it seems to be just another of those dates made up by manufacturers of greetings cards. It may be fun as a youngster, but when you have been married a few years, just to select one day of the year to demonstrate your affection for your spouse seems a bit pointless, unless of course you are in the sort of relationship where demonstration of affection once a year is actually an improvement on the norm...
