I didn't even get one from a dog. I don't think OH knows it is Valentine's Day. :roll:

I'd be grateful for one of Keefy's out of date chocolates. :cry: :cry:

We had a lovely Valentine's lunch in a restored dining car on a heritage steam railway near us. But what is it with the woman a couple of tables away who spent most of the time studying her phone and ignoring the man she was with?

To make up for that a couple asked if we'd take their photo because he'd just proposed.

We have had a fab weekend too, although not meant as anything to do with Valentines.
Had a lovely meal in The Star Inn in York on friday night, with some friends.
Spent the day in York on saturday.
A successful visit to the Pandora shop... :D
Then I found a pair of red Gabor shoes in a sale...Love them !!! Got a coat in the Ness shop..in a sale too with an extra 14% off for Valentines day !!!
Today we went to Fountains Abbey for a walk around the snowdrops, then to Goldsborough Hall http://www.goldsboroughhall.com/dining/ ... on_tea.php
for afternoon tea,which was very very yummy :lol:
Drove home tonight, hubby already left for a flight to LHR.

Busy but wonderful :D

There's just no pleasing some women. I pulled out all the stops but for some reason my gift of love didn't go down well.

It took the hospital an hour and half to remove it. :crazy:

Steady on Merv, let's not go silly. I start going down that road of extravagance she'll expect it every year :)
