I know this sounds un-romantic and boring but this was not my decision.

In years gone by I have written Sarah poems & carved them into a squirrel feeder I made, convinced the local pizza parlor to make a heart shaped pizza and write I love you in pepperoni as well as the leaving clues leading to gifts which lead to clues which lead to other gifts bit (to name but a few).

Now I have been caught in the 'let's not buy each other presents' trap before but as we are so skint this month that I spent the day in the house freezing my bits off (no coal until Tuesday) i think she's not pulling my leg.
