My Cuddly Valentine

I completely forgot about this photo. I had it lined up for Valentines Day but it totally slipped my mind, so you get to see it now. This was the window display of the Pied Piper shop that I showed you last week. The stuffed toys looked so cute with all the hearts. Altoghter now - Ahhhh!

I've got a lot on this week, and its not work - its fun! Anyway, I'm scheduling posts and will comment when I can.

Red Heart

In case you've forgotten, today is Valentines Day. Its the day, if you don't do it the rest of the year, to show your special someone that you love them. I know its all commercialised but it doesn't have to be. The little things in life are romantic - a walk hand-in-hand, a look across a room full of people, laughing together, loving each other. Enjoy.

If you've got two minutes today check out these heart inspired photos at the BBC.

Spoken From The Heart

First things first. This photo is in no way a representation of my own love life!

Well, what can I say about today's photo, apart from its a brilliant piece of graffiti/street art. It just leapt off of the wall at me as I walked by. I wonder if the person it was intended for got the message? And whether they did anything about it! I suppose its a sad state of affairs if the only way you can say what you feel is through a public statement like this. Maybe I'm reading to much into this and it is just something someone did and it means nothing at all.

If anyone wants to use this image to pass a message on to someone special in their life, let me know. I'm the sole of discretion!
