Don't forget the card and flowers

Humbug!

Just in case I splashed out on a Beatles CD single, well it was £1.99 inc P&P.

Its a pity the event happens before the daffs are out in the garden, otherwise a fortune could be saved

Like you Don, I have the romantic bit sorted - the consequences are too grim to do otherwise

And no need to look for the snowdrops in your garden either I nicked them.

Personally I have never spoiled my good lady with all that flowers and chocolates nonsense. She has been well trained. I just give her flowers whenever I feel like it which is maybe once every 2 years.

Remember the old saying "treat them mean keep them kean."

Ewemon: You're a brave man. Spend many nights out on the couch as a result? A little loving is a small price to pay for the all important 'wife approval' when purchasing new bits of Naim kit. Haven't figured out how to tell her that I am buying a couple of Allaes in about four months!

And the Sade album each.Only one though i keep that and copy it
Saves me a few bob.

Munch:

I only thought people on this side of the world did that! An amendment is being planned with copyrights legislation. In a few months, anyone caught with a pirated copy of a CD will be subjected to a fine. Looks like they are no longer interested in going after the retailers of pirated CDs. Unfortunately, most of the kind of music I listen to is not even available from the pirates as jazz is just not profitable enough to duplicate. Therefore, I am able to stay on the right side of the law. Phew! Thank God.

I bought Mrs S our first house on Valentines day many years ago.

She knows better than to expect flowers (unless it's presented to her by the waiter after our meal at the local Tandoori restaurant).
