Anybody up for a 'Valentines Day is Ace' moment? Us people in relationships need to stand up for ourselves.

Yes me, this will be the first time in years and years since I've done anything....although not actually sure what we will be doing. But I have a little surprise for Hoo

What are you doing then MrD?

I'll be cooking a nice romantic dinner (well, as romantic as it's possible to be when we're in the middle of packing) and then we'll see how things progress from there . Oh, and I'm making Mrs. D's card this year... not sure about what present I'm going to buy though.

Big Bucket of KFC and Star Wars on DVD!

nice meal cooked at home, restaurants at this time are crowded and horrible, or take-out and I have a special bottle of vintage belgium beer on order and some trappist belgium cheese to finish.

just checked the SBS site, and it doesn't look like QAF is on - what will we do ????

No QAF?

We'll just have to start with synchronised rubbish disposal at 9:30pm, and watch whatever's on instead. I think it's something about a dysfunctional household; that'll do.

I wish someone had told me, luckily there's still something on that sounds interesting

Well.....the ToyBoy rather sweetly met me at the station last night, and is taking me out to dinner tonight....

I put some rubbish in the bin at the scheduled hour, and felt a warm inner glow at the thought that, in various places, other people would be doing the same thing.

I did it a bit earlier than that but t'was a nice feelin

On account of having a very nice Valentine's day with Mrs. D I forgot to do the bins last night... luckily they're not stinky!

I forgot to do them too

I was in a tutorial at 10.30am GMT but I asked my cleaner to empty my bin at exactly that time and she did, after giving me a very funny look

The trick is to return the look with one that says your request is perfectly normal and not noteworthy at all. It's a valuable skill - it gets me out of all sorts of strife.

Ahh the benefits of being serious and believeable

Yes, I also managed to put my rubbish out, feeling a little comforted with the Valentine's day/rubbish relationship and then watched that show on SBS...it wasn't QAF but it was alright

I just told my cleaner I had a very strange friend on the internet and he ordered me to have my bin emptied at that time. She seemed all right after that

That makes sense. Only weirdos and nutcases hang about on the internet, after all.

Of course, you could have just told her that the voices told you to do it. That has its uses, too.
