I love valentines day, i never had a boyfriend during it untill i met my now boyfriend and i love it!
I think its lovelly to make it special, ok we can do it anytime but what woman wants to go to work and say my boyfriend got me nowt because he says its a waste of money and he can show his love on the other 364 days of the year!
I dont know what im going to do this year, it will be cheap but its the first valentines in our new flat so i can go to town!0 -

I am hoping M and S will do there meal for £10, I don't like going out on Valentines it is all aways overpriced and often not good. I will get my husband some nice chocolates and a card, I normally get some nice flowers.0

One thing I have said to my other half is NO flowers. They jump the price up to nearly double what they are any other time of the year (apart from Mothers Day when I ask not to be sent any too)
I love getting flowers, dont get me wrong, BUT I think that the florists over charge at particular times of the year, this being the main one.
They are in business, I understand that.
I would rather have flowers the weekend after.Married the absolute love of my life on Sunday May 6th and I couldnt be happier!!!0 -
Well I have decided that we are going to eat out on Valentines night, kids are away so instead of me cooking again (or him cooking me something revolting!!) we are going to the pub! Meal in the restaurant, rest of the night with our friends in the bar.

Thanks, I will have to go and have a nosey there. And a pack of 8 will keep me going for 8 years with my boyfriend. lol
Im sure my boyfriend qont do anything romantic, he will probably pick me up a bunch of flowers from the petrol station on the way home.
However I want to do lots of romantic gestures and presents for him, I am going to do him a pot of love and then get him a sphering session, where you go down a hill in a big hamster ball, not overly romantic, but I know he will love it
Maybe get something from thortons too.......... not sure yet.
What do other people get for their oh's?? I mean can you get t shirts and stuff??0
