Today is Valentine’s Day – cue sudden closing of laptop and exit to shop before partner wakes up.
Done the card and roses thing now? – get yourself a cuppa and I will carry on. As I said, today is Valentine’s Day. It has been a long time now since I have been on the look out for a partner. I am very happily married to Mr Blonde Two and have so been for a considerable amount of time. Blonde One and I often talk about how lucky we are with our tolerant husbands. Mr Blonde Two is so good at putting up with my Dartmoor foibles and strange gift needs that I can’t imagine anyone else would quite do. Just imagine the write up I would do on the dating agency website;
Blonde – Long legs, dodgy knees and too many contours. Likes filthy bogs, ancient burial sites and cold soup. IPT (is partial to) wandering round in the dark, counting lichen and extreme map folding. Favourite TV show – Countryfile. Favourite book – Dartmoor 365. Favourite food – Jelly Babies.
Would like to meet – Male with GSOH (gigantic sense of humour) and SI (similar interests) for FTA (fun travel and adventure). Must be willing to carry a back pack and trail across Dartmoor in the dark. Must not object to falling in mud, horizontal rain or walking over the same ground eight times to find a three foot boundary stone. Must be able to put up with a partner who has weekends away, does excessive blog typing and moans about her knee.
What do you think my chances of success would be – not great I imagine. Just as well I am happy where I am. Happy Valentines Day Mr Blonde Two!
We won’t be doing anything special day today. That’s because we don’t need to be told by anyone on what day we should be romantic!
My lady and I believe that it is something you should do every day of the year. Its about being kind to your partner all the time and giving her random gifts or him. You never know one day you may be suddenly presented with a Haribo jacket or just a packet of Jelly Babies!
That’s why we have been married so long! ( Better clarify ) To our respective partners.
Never stop courting and giving each other unexpected suprise such as leading Mr Blonde Two into another leg sucking bog!
Thank you Blonde 2. May I say that it is a pleasure to be Mr Blonde 2. Long may the adventure continue…
xx
Without wanting to sound a bit wierd, I think if I was a man I would be your perfect partner – at least we could moan about our knees together!!!
I am very lucky with my Mr F – obviously being an outdoor pursuits instructor we have lots in common. However he doesn’t have quite the obsessional tendancies to Dartmoor which I have, although since he is now preping for his WGL I’m thinking his love may grow!!! Typical though that now he wants to get out on Dartmoor, when I can’t bloomin well walk!!! Oh well, I’ll be quite happy sat in the van cooking up noodles and hot soup while he goes off doing some nav practice – thats love for you!!!
Have a good one x
Imagine the arguments though – my knee hurts more than your knee … I think you have the best end of the night nav deal!
Leg sucking bogs are the new box of chocolates – I know which smells better.
