Valentines Day

Does anyone know of anywhere in Hertford thats doing a nice Valentines meal? Nothing to formal, something fairly relaxed? Just wondered if those of you that had been here for many years knew of somewhere that was always a good bet to frequent on this sort of occasion as its my first in the area...

Baan Thittya. Most other places use Valentines day as an excuse to offer a reduced menu at a vastly inflated price. I can't really fault them since demand is high, they can charge what they like and there will always be someone willing to pay. Baan are doing their normal menu with two sittings at 7pm & 9pm.

Sounds like a good place to have a pint and some nuts. We all know which team will win <cough> Liverpool <cough>

A friend of mine said he knew he would be getting divorced when he preferred to go to West Ham v Huddersfield last year rather than go out with his (now ex) Wife.

Some people would rather go out with their wife on any night other than valentine's day.

Well good luck with trying that one. No woman likes to feel they're the only woman in the neighbourhood thats not being spoilt on V Day. We may say we dont want anything and bleat on about commercialism blah blah blah but deep down we dont mean it!

Women should not feel so insecure to have to be taken out and spoilt on Clinton Cards Day. My missus is spoilt every day of the week, when she wakes up next to me!![8D]

I won't need luck, ta. [:D] We don't need valentine's day to be romantic. Of course, you can generalise women as thinking that a routine night out just because eveyone is doing so is romantic if you wish,... [;)]

Valentine's Day is the same day as it has always been - February 14th. It generally starts at 6.30pm when I get home with the card that I've only just bought from Mind The Gap!

Tuesday eh? That's dashed inconvenient. Tuesday's my night with the boys. Never mind. There's always next year. Does Mind The Gap sell Milk Tray as well?

The Hillside at the bottom of Port Hill is fantastic. I can still remember when it was a tatty old pub that sold microwaved mexican food! But book early. Stephen Bardle

Speaking as an expert, (a woman) I'd be gutted not to do something on Valentines day... Even if there are all those other days in the year to do something special. I do agree that it's all overblown and also a bit miserable for those who are temporarily single, but I'd hate to be left out. If next year is different, I'd go for The Hillside [:)][:)]

He's got a load of chocolates on special offer in the window for 60p.
