Any of you old romantics out there have any suggestions about what i can get our maud for valentines?
Im looking for alternative/original suggestions cos im fed up of getting her the same old every year ie, roses, chocolates, underwear etc etc etc. I'll take any ideas but please keep it clean and sensible

The same as my girlfriend will be getting - nothing.

Typical tight ass rednose...no class

My missus would seriously give me a slap if I bought her a present for this Hallmark Holiday.

C'mon fella think outside the box... If your maud is worth it and not scared then go for this..... www.virginballoonflights.co.uk/buynow.asp

The Balloon flight is ok but a tad cheesey, anyone got anyother ideas?

John Terry's autobiography


Seriously though, I've been like this for the past few years, you can either spend tonnes of cash on presents and romantic weekends away, or you can stay at home and cook her a meal and have a relaxing weekend together, depends how much of a romantic you are

Your not that romantic then, you should be cooking your wife a meal a few times a week anyway... unless your gonna pull out all the stops with music, candles and so on but even then when does a relaxing weekend at home be just that... Sunday is valentines and you know as well as i do Saturday will be spent washing, cleaning, ironing and so forth whilst your doing jobs in the house.

Weekend away removes all the jobs so it can be just a relaxing weekend plus you can still cook the nice meal with flowers, candles and music....

Basically your tight with your money is what you mean or as some like to say careful

You cant beat the old dirty...er...i mean romantic weekend away


Anyone got any recommendations of nice hotels that they've experienced first hand?
Someone once told me about a very nice hotel in or near leeds which is right near some water, so close in fact you can hang your tackle out of the window and catch some right whoppers. Ive never been able to remember the name of it so have never been myself

Its our first valentines as husband n wife so got to make it a special one, so a trip to the pub on the saturday to watch the wire v cas. God how romantic am i

What about a nice lesson on the "piste" at chill factor then a nice cool glass of Chardonnay in the Alpine bar overlooking the slope! How romantic is that? rolling about in the snow.

going conny club...in a doms comp..then home to watch my rugby bet romp in..then take the better half out for a meal...just hope it comes in tho

My missus wants to go for a day out the Saturday before Valentine's Day (nothing to do with V Day itself which she hates, just a general day out as we've got no football on that weekend) so we're going to Leeds as it's only half an hour on the train to Cas from there. Sound.

Doesn't mean you can't do something really special. Theme it on something special to you both and if you've got kids, make sure thery can stay with grandparents for the weekend!

not very


and it could be your last valentines as husband n wife if you're not careful

Takes all sorts i guess

Thats one hell of a gamble Les

A card

she can always come the conny club and cheer me on..then pray my bet comes in

lol gaz

I didn't explain myself very well, i should've said 'partner' instead of 'missus'

we don't live together, and I've been in Germany for the last few months, so I'm flying back and surprising her... I suppose if a couple doesn't live together it might be more romantic to cook a meal for her with candles and the whole shebang, but in our case she still lives with her mother so the best option is to get out of her way

and go away for the weekend...



To the poster who asked to reccommend hotels/locations/etc. i don't think it matters where, somewhere quiet/relaxing that won't require you to take out a small mortgage to stay there this weekend

I don't live with mine and due to work I'll only be seeing her for one day in that whole week. On that day I'm leaving her in Leeds at 4.30 and catching a train to Cas away; "See you next weekend love".

Proper man me.*



*Change "proper" to "lucky" to have a girlfriend who hates Valentine's Day.

i buy my wife a bunch of flowers every week,she'll get a card but nothing else out of the ordinary,romance should flow throughout the year like a sparkling brook,hang on i think i'm about to vomit.
what's annoying about it is there are no women out there fretting over what to do for there blokes on the 14th,if they did ask we'd all want the same thing anyway!

A bit of love walrus and you're done.
