It's that day again: Happy Valentine's Day

Some embrace it literally! Others rail against it. Most of us probably ignore it.

Whatever your feelings - take a few minutes to think about the people in your world you love. And then take another few minutes to think about the furry, feathery, scaly creatures we love. And your favourite flowers, food, drink, car, book, author and, of course, artist!!

Just try to make today the day you think good thoughts for most of the time.
