With age Valentines like Christmas becomes over rated to sell more gifts that are not needed, cards that are not wanted and flowers that soon wilt and die. Good write Dave
Get out there and tell it like it is then, Soren.
Thanks for the call.
The guy's a legoverend and must be celebrated.
Off down the graveyard now for my flowers.
Don't hang about unless you have someone to cushion you from the marble.
Did you know Val in person, if you're very old? He lived in 3rd Century AD. Erm, well he did live until he became a martyr, if ya get my drift!
I cant drift that far back, orchi - only you have that unique gift.... and perhaps that goldfinch fella...
Maybe he was Valentine Bloggs, as in Joe Bloggs - a name used to mean 'anyone' in the UK.
What's your equivalent of that name in Australia?
I would tell ya, but from what I know of ya , Everyone would know ya wos just a Pommy coming the raw prawn...
I know, right?!?! 🤣 I concur! What if we proposed that all Valentine's Day celebrations end the way of St. Valentine? 😏 That might frost up the cupid mirrors a bit! LOL! 😝
I second that motion. Great to see progress attempted in a constructive way, Tristan.
LOL! All in favor? 🤣
Aye.
Done deal! 💀🤣
Let Mr Valentine come around here with his Pink Suit and his Flowery Talk and I'll set the Hounds on him by Jove. He wants Horsewhiping. And if I had a Horse I'd do it.
Hostility I can very much appreciate. However I cannot endorse this as it may have a negative effect on my pristine image.............................................................
I shall however be eternally grateful for your support.
All sorted Dave.
Andy
Very cryptic, Andy.
I agree.
Counted your vote. I will now live with the idea that the motion was carried.
Me too darling ❤️xx
Have to tell you you're a sweetie, since ya got the message.
But let me assure that I won't be making a habit.......
