  8. Get romantic this Valentine's Day!

    The last couple of years have been tough for many people, so why not surprise your loved one with something special this Valentine's Day!

    Put some thought into what would be a romantic idea- a beach or park picnic, or a dinner out at a special restaurant. Make sure you book the restaurant in advance as it a very busy night and many restaurants book out quickly.

    If you don't want to head out, maybe get your Valentine to stay in bed while you organise a romantic breakfast for them. You can cook them a heart shaped egg in toast or some heart shaped pikelets.
