Millsy Thankfully the Duchess has a birthday within 5 days of Valentines and so never expects anything by way of gifts, which is great as I always get her fuck all.

Surely doing your bit by taking her to ā€˜The Duchess Theatreā€™ while you chug no pun intended 8 train beers en route (while playing Springsteen full blast on your mobile in the carriage).

    Flowers, prosecco & card deliberately ordered after we agreed not to get each other anything so when her mates ask about it, she can be the tosser.

      Having you in her life is present enough, Wal.

      Iā€™ll cook and then weā€™ll settle down to watch Pregnant Asian Babes 4 after the boy has gone to bed. Iā€™ll trim her nails and let her slip a digit in and as Iā€™m approaching 50 Iā€™ll get her to check for any abnormalities, kill 2 birds and all that.

      Took the day off, bought the missus brunch and instead of taking her bike for a needed service, bought her the new one she had her eye on. Best reaction of any present yet!

        Wife: ā€œWeā€™re not doing Valentineā€™s Day this year are we?ā€
        Me: ā€œSure, happy not to do it this yearā€ [* remembers Valentineā€™s Day 2021 when she also said that and got the hump when I didnā€™t give her flowers. Then had to pay a load of money to get flowers delivered on the day before divorce oā€™clock*]
        Wife (intermittently for the next few days) referencing Valentineā€™s Day at every opportunity.
        Me: No comment
        Me: Order flowers, card etc. for Valentineā€™s Day.
        Wife: [on Valentineā€™s Day] I thought we werenā€™t doing anything. You didnā€™t have to buy me anything.
        Me: Groans
        Wife hurriedly goes out to shops on Valentineā€™s day to get me a card and some chocolates.

        As always, my postman needs back surgery having struggled to deliver all of the cards I got sent.

        Thought and prayers for Mrs Rhouses and her bucket. If anyone needed a break itā€™s that woman.

          Likely got a new bucket & ā€˜chopping knifeā€™. Rhouses knows how to treat a lady

          My wife just called me. She said, ā€œThree of the girls in the office have just received some flowers for Valentines Day, they are absolutely gorgeous.ā€ I said, ā€œThatā€™s probably why theyā€™ve received flowers then.ā€

            Roses are red
            Bee Gees are disco
