More on 'lurve' . . .

Looking back on my post the other day on St Valentine's Day, I thought I might have come across as a bit 'holier than thou' so just to put the record straight here are a few quotes I found on the subject of 'lurve'. Mostly humorous (at least they made me smile!) but some are just plain ol' sentimental. That to me is what St Valentine's Day is all about.

I hope you have the sort of Valentines' Day you'd wish for; be it a romantic evening in, a slap-up dinner out somewhere grand or maybe even decorating the spare room together or perhaps just ignoring it altogether - each to their own.
