February 14

HAVE you heard of a lovespoon? It was a wooden spoon which young men in Wales used to carve for their sweethearts. It would be decorated with symbols: a horseshoe for luck, chain links to show the links between the couple, a heart for the love he held for her. A key meant that he wanted to lock the girl in his heart for ever.
Wasn't that a lovely custom?
