Valentine's Day

This morning the Arrival of the Bouquets, part of our annual Valentine's celebration, will take place at 9am. This will be followed by the Procession of Fluffy Bunnies. The Celebration of Undying Love will be at 11 in the Ballroom, followed by Love-hearts at 12 prior to the  Romantic Lunch.

Personally I'll be celebrating the Feast of SS Cyril and Methodius in the Library with a single malt. And I'm not even going to be celebrating that very much, as Cyril and Methodius were notoriously men as well. Still, at least they weren't some swine who led a girl's heart astray on a Greek island in 1987 and then cleared off leaving a false address, and who later, thanks to the work of a private detective, turned out to be a dentist from Solihull who was married and had four children.

Valentine's Day? You can keep it.

  1. Is St Methodius the Patron Saint of Methodism? If not, he should be with a name like that. and if so, a single malt in celebration is wrong, just wrong!

    Roses are red and pricey as well
    They fall to bits and have no smell
