You will be unsurprised to know that Mr Glis and I don’t
“do” St Valentine’s Day. In the dim and distant
past, we may have exchanged a card but that was an awfully long time ago. And it’s not because I lack romantic notions;
it’s just that I don’t believe February 14th is the time for them. Like so many other festivals, Valentine’s Day
has been overtaken by modern commercialism, and that is Not A Good Thing. Now, it’s all about tasteless, grand gestures
with the concept of a simple, affectionate love-token sent to your special
person, consigned to history.
