            I'll join in from a guys prospective :rotfl:
 I got her some new pyjamas, a lovely chemise but thats more for me than her! A couple of lucky in love scratch cards (they weren't very lucky) along with a large designer rubber duck because she wanted one for the bathroom. My highlight was a wonderful hand made card, a first for me I must admit! I created a photo collage of us on the front and put a few hearts round it and wrote a poem inside. I think that went down well. Don't usually bother much but felt like it this year.
 She got me Active Health with Carol Vorderman for Nintendo DS which comes with a pedometer to help with my new years resolution to get more fit.
 To top it off we went to Pizza Hut on Sunday and three course meal with a heart shaped pizza. Topped with lots of pepperoni it looked quite impressive! 0 0

 BUT did any of you catch the story in the news of the guy in minesota who gave his missus of 37 years a pile of manure!!!! :eek:
 The manure was spread over several days, in an outline of a heart, over half a mile. It even had a manure arrow piercing the heart.
 And the best part is she liked it!

            After our issues before Christmas (where we realised we'd both stopped trying for birthdays / christmas / valentines) we decided to make the effort this year.
 I got him a bottle of squirty scream and some sprinkles (which has been a running joke between us) plus I made a baked new york cheesecake (which he adored as I DONT cook and when I do it generally goes wrong, so he was well impressed I managed to make one that tasted nice!) Lol
 He got me a lovely rose and a bag of mini eggs (addicted to them) AND.....
 told me he's booked for us to tour around Australia for 5 weeks over christmas!!! Obviously he's not paying for all of it but hes saved nearly 5k already without me knowing Bless him Bless him Green and White Barmy Army!0 Green and White Barmy Army!0

 I felt so guilty, when we left for our break (on v day) I went into the shop and bought him a tube of love hearts!Married the absolute love of my life on Sunday May 6th and I couldnt be happier!!!0
