So it's Valentine's Day and Real Madrid play PSG tonight

:-|

and :-| again.

I have a bottle of Bollinger, some expensive choccies and shall buy a card later today (against my will) but you think there is any chance I get to watch the game?

Nope. :-(

I honestly don’t mean to come across as a curmudgeonly non-romantic but do you honestly ‘celebrate’ the day?

Mercy me WES are all you moose botherers hen pecked wretches or are you a rarity?

One doesn't ask permission to watch the football. One simply cracks open one's tin of lager, assumes a surly and macho demeanour in one's favourite chair and commences watching. One must then exude menace which will deter her from interrupting one's sporting experience.

Always - bottle of nice bubbly (Bollinger this year), a nice meal in and some posh chocolates. Also, a card each.

And later today I shall be buying the aforementioned card and chocs. I hope. :-(

I suppose what harm if it is a mutually enjoyable evening. I / we don't bother with it at all though the wife does leave a card for both kids.

Now I expect Sir C to mosey along in due course and ridicule your choice of champagne, that being his style.

p.s. I would just go now and get said chocs/card. You don't want to be halfway home and remember.

Nothing wrong with Bolli. :shrug: A little obvious, perhaps, but he's American, so what do you expect?

I like the pink one, Laurent Perrier? I'm not gay all the same.

She does. It is what is commonly referred to as "a joke".

The 10 year old boy takes it quite badly as the concept of a girl wanting to smooch him makes him feel sick. I am not sure how the girl reacts.

I expect you don’t because to do so would be to pigeon hole your children as being one gender or another, or to put them in a position of vulnerability or whatever which is not of their choosing.

:nod: You know his missus bought him hand cream, right? That's either an acknowledgement that he is a soft-handed fairy boy or a less than subtle signal to him that if he wants sexual release over the next year he's going to have to take care of himself.

There is absolutely nothing special about today so there should be no special reason whatsoever that you shouldn't watch the game.
