What did you get? Underwhelmed? Think s/he’s the best ever?

I wonder if anyone could have had as much of a half-arsed effort as I was at the receiving end of today.

Who is Valentine? Rossi?

First class train Leeds to London.
Night in a cracking hotel and a three course meal with champagne, cocktails and many gins.
Best breakfast I’ve had in years.
Wander round London looking at things.

Can’t complain 🙂

I’m sure it was an ‘accidental’ slip. I’m told rest and a cushion helps.

No gifts thankfully; we did book an overnight away in Glasgow, despite living just outside of Glasgow, coupled with dining in one of our favourite restaurants. That was last weekend, Valentine’s weekend we watched my sisters 4 year old so she and her husband could get a night out.

I watched a movie with my neighbour in mutual consolation. Really enjoyed it actually! 🙂

Valentines day is stupid and only stupid people do it 🙁

@Fasthaggis Your off my ‘save from zombies’ list

OP: more explanation would be lovely. Just a card? Something like that?

I’ll save mine till later. Just wondering if anyone else got anything quite so crap.

Married 17 years and still brilliantl!

I got a second trip to IKEA in a single weekend today to return a wrong sized wardrobe. I am at least partly to blame for this screw up as in my rush to escape yesterday I didn’t double check the height.

Mrs g-d did offer to go to be fair. But I wasn’t going to mess up her day.

@Fasthaggis Your off my ‘save from zombies’ list
Phew!,at least I don’t have to do all those things on your other list now.

Sorry,but I did enjoy Deadpool as my valentines day film 😛

Valentine schmalentine. Overrated profit-making scam for the greetings cards companies.

And apparently nowadays, parents get Valentines cards for their offspring. Wtf? 😯

Mine was weird.

I got girl A a card, but girl B got upset. Now my wife is in tears. Probably shouldn’t have told her.

Crikey … you told your wife! 😆 😯

Now every time she feels upset she is going us that line against you … 😛

She will remember that for the rest of your life!

Never tell a wife about your interaction with another woman/women …

Never again me.

I just cleaned my shop proper spring clean de-greased the rubber floor getting all the marks off so best valentines ever as nobody to fubar it

Nothing never bothered for years as its a load of shite.

Raced the bike, drank beer and had dinner with 3 blokes. Top night and talked mostly about riding all across the world. Top night.

Centreparcs was it?

We want out for lunch on the Sat after the OS sportive we did in the morning.
She was then working last night

Went to see Deadpool Saturday night, my wife insisted, it was great. Sunday we exchanged cards, cooked a killer breakfast, made a banoffee cheesecake. Then I cooked a Beef Stroganoff for dinner.

I don’t expect things for Valentines other than a card and I don’t even care too much about that, just show someone you love them in the things you do for them or do together.

I went for a 30 miles bike ride

Nice buttplug.

Night in a cracking hotel and a three course meal with champagne, cocktails and many gins.

I first read that as cocktails and many girls.

Out for a meal Saturday night together. Woke up together

Had a child free walk in lovely winter sunshine. Then fell asleep on the sofa watching rugby.

Getting divorced. No valentines for me!

I played with myself in the bath.

I went for a 30 miles bike ride

So did I, although not with RD.

****’ headwind the whole way back and after a massive ulster fry too! Barf.

Mine was thrilling….she let me wash her car, walk the dogs, do the housework, ring her MOTHER!!! and cook tea.

The job as a InterContinental Lorry Driver is very appealing.

Also sent a spoof email to a girl at work, then cancelled the email address. 😈

mrs rocket has gone to Tenerife with the rest of the family so I had the whole weekend to myself

Fan-fricken-tastic!

We got each other cards, went riding in cwmcarn for the day, went to McDonald’s on the way home because we were starving. Finished up the evening with a nice hot bubble bath and a glass of wine. Best valentines ever, much rather spend time with the one I love doing what we love than going to an overpriced restaurant and spending a fortune on gifts.

Wife ill with chest infection, kids ill with the tail of the virus that’s been levelling the local population, spent the day nursing them, apart from a two hour patch where #2 had his nap and I got out on the bike and the other two watched DVD’s from a sofa nest. Cheers Mrs S, best valentines pressie ever!

Made cards with the kids the day before (separately), got flowers for her and let her sleep until 11ish and then took the kids to the park so she could have a bit of peace.
Int the evening had a bag of crisps and bottle of pop on the sofa after the offspring had been put to bed.

Well I got a bottle of bubble bath and a card that said ‘Happy Anniversary’ on the inside with ‘Anniversary’ crossed out and replaced with ‘Valentine’s’.

To be fair my wife did pick it up from the middle of a display of Valentine’s cards so I can see how it could happen, but I feel utterly underwhelmed and a little bit not loved today. 😥

with ‘Anniversary’ crossed out and replaced with ‘Valentine’s’.

Better than “Congrats on Passing Your Driving Test!!!”, I guess.
