Happy Valentine's Day

Today is, of course, Valentine's Day; a day to make your loved one feel appreciated. There are many ways to do this, many things to give to your significant other. Amid the usual flowers and chocolates, there are many which are, quite frankly, odd.

This often means producing a heart-shaped version of an everyday item. For instance, Sainsbury's have this year launched a heart-shaped cucumber for the event. And I'm sure the fact that this item is heart-shaped won't have detracted from its £5 million price tag. And you might need something to keep that £5 million in. The list of heart shaped confectionery is also fairly endless.

The other tack is to produce items in any conceivable shape, as long as they are made of chocolate. Chocolate books, Monopoly sets, bacon (?!) and credit cards are just a few of things you might choose to use in your wooing.

But too much pomp and ceremony means precisely that, you will be standing on ceremony all day. All you want is a nice, relaxed meal in a warm, friendly setting.
