Love it or hate it, Valentine’s Day is just around the corner.
The history of Valentine’s Day is somewhat shrouded in mystery but we believe it is named after a Christian martyr and dates back to the 5th century, with origins in the Roman holiday, Lupercalia.
Regarded by some as a commercial exploitation exercise and an excuse to spend money, 14th February is the traditional day of love around the world.
