Valentines day is causing me some grief

So love is in the air and Valentines day is coming up and coming quickly. I don’t agree with it all as I just see it as a time where companies / hotels and card companies can charge over the odds for weekends away and just to rake in the cash, but it doesn’ matter what I think at all, it’s here, it’s part of our lives and it’s here to stay. So no point in complaining about it and join in with the love.

This year I want to make it extremely special for my wife who has been having a hard time lately and I haven’t helped, she has enough worry and stress of her own and she has also been taking mine on too over the hard months.

I have been looking around for about 5 hours last night and 2 hours this morning for different things for the 14th feb.

So far I have looked at:

  • Paris for a couple of nights
  • Centre Parcs for 3 nights
  • Trip to London and staying in the Dorchester, traveling down 1st class with all the trimmings
  • A few nights in the lake district taking the dogs and some walking to be done
  • Spa Day for her and her mum one weekend
  • Romantic meal for 2 (although I can’t cook right well as she found out on her birthday)

It’s really causing me some grief as I can’t seem to find the perfect treat for her, I really want to spoil her and show her how much I love her and give her a few days that she wouldn’t ever forget!

I think I have finally decided on a few things that I am going to do but obviously I cant post on here! It’s mind boggling and I used to be really good at all this sort of stuff but seem to have lost my touch!

What are you doing for Valentines day?

Ideas welcome!
