Happy Valentines Day...!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I hope you are getting some loving over in your corner of the world, wherever that may be.

Over at our place Valentine's Day came early with a celebration on Friday due to the fact that Mr M is in Dublin working this weekend. Mr M always cooks for me on Valentine's but this year the lovely people at Marks and Spencer made it altogether too easy for him with their £20 for a complete romantic meal deal - rose cava, rose et al. It was gorgeous though - thank you my lovely.

I've shared a few personal photos of our special evening with you today. I have learnt from these photos that a) I seem to take a lot of photos at the same angle, b) I need new plates, c) I have a "best side" and this one doesn't show it.

Today, sans Valentine, I went to see some wedding bands at a bridal fayre showcasing some of "the best in Ireland". One in particular, with a super brilliant reputation, really disappointed me - the room filled fast when they were due on but they went round the crowd making embarrassing remarks most of the time commenting on people's weight etc instead of just singing. I was one of the unfortunate victims when they tried to get me to sing but really I just wanted to say into the mic, "You're totally overrated sonny". I did like one in particular though which will mean we'll have to stretch the budget - as in double it - if we are to go for them. Wish me luck with raising that subject with Mr M!!
