Hi All,
As part of my commitment to modern consumer culture lol I love having a debate with my students on St Valintines' Day about where the apostrophe should go :)
There are thee St Valintines who have been given Feb 14 as their big day and I think two of them got in trouble for performing marriages when Rome said not to.
