    I know I did so I'll make up for it by creating a tasty pizza tonight! :pizza:

    The Victorians had other ideas.

    In the Victorian Era, Valentine’s Day Was a Celebration of Same-Sex Romance
    Such "smashes" were encouraged when women were considered "passionless."

    On days like today , I recall my mate Jimmy , a detective with Glasgow's finest.

    He had six girlfriends.... Sundays was a rest day.

    He called them all Darling.

    He always bought them the same fragrance as a present.

    And two days before valentine's day he made the local florist a happy man.

    I take it he died before his time? :D One at a time was more than enough for me.

    As far as I know he only got caught once. Wednesday's lady found the hotel key he had used with Tuesday's lady.

    The proverbial sh*t hit the fan . But he got his boss to put him on special projects for two weeks and he was able to disappear for z bit

    Nooooooooo.

    I am like you. One at a time is more than enough.

    Back in my twenties and thirties I travelled a lot , maybe twenty countries a year.

    My mates accused me of having one in each country.

    But I have to say I was too busy working than chasing the ladies.

    I used to to do Three and Four week trips at the time. I had the choice of nightclubs or golf courses at the weekend.

    All I will say is that I have played a round in almost every South American country....8)
