Mumsnet Talk

Me: Nothing, nada
Of course I'd ordered HIS present a couple of weeks ago.

Did anyone get anything worse than nothing? No judgey pants here, if you got a yacht/car/pearl necklace <snigger>, please come and boast.....but yuk in advance.

Absolutely nothing. We are to lazy to bother with don't do Valentine's Day.

...and I'm still waiting for my birthday present!

Cunnilingus. Non-reciprocated.

A card.

A book.

I don't know what book. DD told me it was a book. I'm sure he'll give it to me later.

A wild rumpus.

Was it enough?

Who the fuck knows.

According to DH every day is Valentines day in our house so no need to make a song and dance about Feb 14, I'm not entirely convinced however!

Have a lovely time alessthan!

We tend to be fairly low key, after 23 years together its usually choccies or flowers and a bottle of fizz to have with a nice dinner at home which DH generally cooks. This morning however i got a diamond nose stud as well as the choccies so I am a very happy bunny. Maybe it's to make up for the ceramic frog (yes, you read that right) I got for our 20th wedding anniversary!!!!!!!

Nothing.

Well, maybe a phone call. DH away.

A bunch of roses and a banoffee pie, made from scratch by DH last night.

My present to him is that I'm getting up with DS every morning this week so he has the luxury of sleeping in till 7 every morning (we normally alternate mornings). He was over the moon when I told him - small pleasures eh?

It won't even get a mention in this house - which suits me fine!

I made these for dh's breakfast this morning. He was still laughing when he left for work .

We don't usually mark Valentine's Day though. I got a card for dh but he forgot this year, so he made me one. It's about a bookcase .

streakybacon those eggs are cool! DW doesn't like egg white and is very particular how she makes the yolk so I won't be doing it. I'll be with giserablemitt not literally, that'd be unfair on our partners, but getting and giving absolutely nothing.

For me it's just odd - loving your partner isn't some tat on a commercial day in feb.

I got a cuddly turtle sent all the way from Malaysia as DP is away.

Big Hair - hair dryer thing.

I always send DH a website link to EXACTLY what I want so he can just order it and have it delivered. Learnt the hard way after lots of glittery tat presents.

me: a selection of love honey items & necklace
dp: tat

we do the same each year.

Thorntons chocs in heart box
A black soft toy owl type bird with huge eyes (chosen by my 4 year old)
A card (with wife on only got married in September)

I got him
Card with husband on it
Some fudge
I love you Belgium chocs
Foil heart chocs

A messy kitchen, crumbs everywhere and yesterday's clothes on the floor. Who cares if I'm huge and about to give birth and I've got four lively 7-10year olds to look after
All day? Oh I did get a card with a message about how complacent he sometimes is............lol

Dp's still in bed but more than likely nothing. He says its my birthday next week so i have to wait til then

I got a huge bouquet of flowers and a lovely leather cover for my kindle from DH, quite impressed as it's usually tat! And like MamaMaiasaura my first wife card as we only got married seven weeks ago!

I got him a nice card with our wedding pic on but haven't actually bought him anything yet, am off today so will go get something this morning, but wasn't too worried as he usually got me something silly, need to think of something nice now! Will also bake him his fav choc cake and we'll have a nice dinner tonight

We used to cook a nice meal together as a mutual present, with a better-than-usual bottle of wine. Plus a card. But my birthday is the week before, do we've just had a great night out, no need to do it again so soon at twice the price.

Vibrating nipple clamps.

For him.

Dozen Red Roses & a nice card. This is our 24th Valentines day together

I got a Yves Saint Laurent eye make up kit and a rose got DP Ed Sheerans album
