Valentines Day

It's a load of nonsense. And non-Jewish. But I've bought Neil a card and nagged him to buy me one. Which he did. AND a make-up card for last year :-)

And I'm making him his favourite chicken pie. Why spend money on pressies when you can cook? :) (OK, the pie isn't cheap; it has morel mushrooms and quite a bit of wine in it. Which is why I do it as a treat.)

V day isn't a religious thing, as far as I'm aware? It's just a Brit thing?

Nope - it's short for St Valentines Day. Although apparently it's really got pagan origins. Google turns up a bunch of stuff. :)

Well yes, it has Pagan origins but since this country doesnt recognise paganism as a religion......
