I'm not sure anybody in an actual relationship does Valentine's Day.

There are a few hopeless romatics left in the world John. I have never forgotten to surprise my wife on Valentine's Dat (33 year streak) and she has never rembered that we celebrate it.

count me in if you have the room - we don't do "that day" either. I could probably set up a zoom link for you to send, using work's version which seems to not have issues and can deal with the number of heads. I use it for strata meetings with no problems . . . . . .

If it's Valentine's Day maybe we should read something warm, fuzzy and lovey-dovey like A Girl in Time or The Golden Minute by noted romance author <checks notes> John Birmingham... 😇

You are surprisingly sanguine about being accused of being a romance author 😂
