well it's February and the pressure is on, you're supposed to come up with something romantic :-4 what are you going to do? i was thinking of sending my sweetheart a plane ticket to meet me in miami and then a month together sailing down in the keys on the outside, dolphins riding the bow wake, living on the hook, following the southern cross....key largo, tavernier, islamorada, matecumbe, big pine, little torch, boca chica, key west...sunsets and margaritas. all to a jimmy buffett soundtrack, moonlight through palm fronds rustling in the sea breeze, ice cold oysters and beer, hot sand, cool blue water, diving naked for lobsters and fish.

I try not to think about valentines until after groundhogs day :-3



Not sure what we are doing, last year was a write off... we arranged to meet 3 other couples from the club at a local restaurant and when we arrived it was an absolute zoo - and the people that arranged it had forgotten to get a reservation. So they said a 2 hour wait for table...



Paul and I took off and stopped at the drive thru on the way home



Diving naked for lobsters sounds dangerous, you see the claws those things have??

florida (caribbean) lobsters don't have claws...just tail. :-6

i KNOW there is some lucky man out there who deserves you Carla, we just have to find him!... so what's the game plan?

LADYCOP, :-4

Your the best kiddo.. I'm thinkin I will just have to trip over him..!!

Glad to see how everyone is having fun and planning for the Valentine. I've being too busy for relationships but just awoken from my slumber, wish me luck as i try to find that special someone who will make me feel happy and complete.

Poly & Carla ~ there is someone out there for you, we just have to figure out how to get your paths to cross



VD is just not a big thing with me, never has been... I am very content without celebrating events like this.



Carla, I always get Noel candy though ~ like your Mom, and we do her valentines to give out at school

>>^..^ VD is just not a big thing with me, never has been...


No, the impact of penecillin has been far-reaching.













(sorry!)

Valentine Cards, teddy bears ect. Another racket. I only even said it with Flowers.:-4 And as long as they don't bring the religion into it:wah:

Here's wishing all the ladies & gents in our Garden to have the Happiest Valentines Day ever! May your every desire come true for you on that special day! :-6

Hello >>^..^<<, thanks for the encouragement. Its really a matter of time and hope and I'll be singing a love song for my yet-to-be-found love.

Hi polycarp, you just never know when you will run into the right one



Good Luck!

Thanks again >>^..^<<. Infact my eyes and ears are at alert now as I don't wanna waste no opportunity. Any tips on the right person or should I just trust my instincts when I meet a lady?

Trust your instincts... all of them especially your ears. I could give you advise out the nose holes if you like, but I think the best is use caution and be open minded, and try one or 2 dates with different scenarios. And also go in with the "I just might like to try that" attiduted. I mean if she suggests an event you have never done before don't automatically say no, give it a try, you wont' know till you try. Also don't fall for anyone who is needy, mentally unstable, has an ex she can't stop talking about. hehehehe that is just the tip of my advice.

Thanks Minks, I sure will take your words seriously. I'll get back to you after my first encounter.

A box of chocolates, a bottle of wine and a bouquet of flowers that is shared sounds like a good time to me.

Planning is the key to a good Valentine. (planning=euphemism for finding someone to give your valentine hearts to)

Kensloft, i have full faith and confidence you will be a happy man on Valentine's Day! and thereafter!

That's why I said a box shared? You'll both have to work off the extra weight. Does anyone know how many calories hot kissing necking burns off?

I have full faith and confidence that you are right!

VD day is our BIG day here in ths florist. Weve been getting ready for a couple of weeks now. I get to see hundeads of people come in to buy things for the people they love. Our roses are 55.00 75.00 and 95.oo dollars a dozen.It has always been my favorite holiday in flower shops. Its a day when everyone is sheepish and sweet.But theres no one for me.....As I put chocolate in peoples arrangements.. I eat one. And I always have flowers in my room.Maybe this year..................

Lady your valentine's day sounds great. Maybe I'll copy yours, If my wife will let me . Hope you won't take offense if this old rocker substitutes ZZ Top :guitarist for Buffet :wah:

Cass, you simply must stop calling valentine's day "VD".....call it 'hallmark stock-owners' dividend $$$ day' or something. ...some of us don't HURL at the mere thought of romance, shakespeare and sonnets, ballads and hearts beating as one......... :-4

lady cop wrote: Cass, you simply must stop calling valentine's day "VD". :-4


VD? Venison Dinner?

lady cop wrote: Cass, you simply must stop calling valentine's day "VD"..... Look, I haven't called it VD-Day ~ have I? it's just an acronym, an abbreviation if you will (why is that word so long, anyway?)
