We don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day, we never have done. I’m glad I’m not the only one, blog land is full of love but it is for real people not plastic hearts. There are those that do embrace Valentine's and I'm happy for you if it works.

I think our reluctance towards Valentine's might have something to do with the fact that by the time our first Valentine’s came round we had been together for almost a year and the romance was already over (how jaded do I sound). Seriously we are just not a very romantic couple. We went to see the Magdalene Sisters for our first official date! There is nothing like a nun film to ruin the romance in any relationship. We express our love for each other in ways that aren’t red! Or chocolate – although O absolutely adores chocolate and would probably shove me out the way to eat them all first.

I hope you have a lovely time with your special someone whether it is today or any other day of the year that you decide to chose to celebrate your love.
