If they fit that is.... if not you'll be in the bad books, and wearing them yourself Manolo's are such fussy little unwearable shoes

nope luckily she had tried them on a couple of months previously (secretly hoping that I would have bought them there and then!), and they fit like a glove.

Also she had tried them on pre-sale.

slam dunk

M&S Shellfish bucket
Bottle of cold Pinot Grigot
M&S French lattice Apple Pie.

All for under £25


You would pay well over £60 in a restaurant for that.

Starry's spot on! Buy me a bag of lovely stuff for the bath, run me a nice deep hot bath and let me chill out for an hour with a book and a glass of wine, bestest pressie I could have at the moment...

(This of course means that Zef looks after Arthur for an hour and then I have to clean the mess up after I emerge from the bathroom! )

Look after the baby for the whole day and cook a simple meal... finish witha couple of episodes of Lost and I am the greatest man in the world!!!!

I love my wife for being so easy to please!

Christ this is a depressing thread. Is EVERYBODY so insecure in their relationships that they feel compelled to indulge themselves in this ritual on the one day that the industry with a vested interest in plucking their emotional strings says it's OK?

If I made any kind of gesture on Feb 14th my other half would absolutely thump me - it's the ONE day of the year when it's not OK to do something. There are 364 other days when anything, however small, is more meaningful than any effort made on Valentine's Day. Who feels more special? The woman going home on the tube who's the only one with flowers on, say, June 1st, or the woman who can barely get on the tube because it's like a branch of bleeding Interflora on Feb 14th?

By all means, buy her flowers, chocs, cook her dinner, take her to the theatre, but FFS do it on some other day when it actually means something.

Rant over.

I dont like the idea of HAVING to show affection on valentines day. I DO like the idea of 'love day' and 'christmas 2' like on the Simpsons! Sir-Love-A-Lot anyone?

Exactly the truth! Isn't it funny how a card company says you should all go out and buy a present for your dearest on this one particular day, that everyone is shamed into doing it....

Although having said that some men do need a little boot up the botty every now and then but doing on this one particular day is sort of daft, kind of like Mum's day....I don't need a special day to tell me I should think of my Mum....

As intelligent and well thought through as ever, Dwayne. Doubtless you'll be whisking Claudia Schiffer off to Paris for lunch, followed by dinner at the Ivy and a night's clubbing with your royal pals at China White's. Have a lovely day old boy.

Sanctimonius twat alert ( me not you)

My Mrs and I have been together for 30 years this year and married for 25 years this year......we dont send eachother cards,but my post above shows what we will be having for dinner.

I really object to paying £20 for a few mangy roses, when every other week I buy a bunch of roses or carnations from M&S when doing the shopping ...and they last for weeks.

I may sound really tight, but if my mrs doesnt know I love her by now, its a sad and sorry affair.
