Let this Valentines day be about thoughtfulness and creativity. The whole idea of Valentine's day should be simple and creative. You could choose to have a romantic dinner at home, go to one of the beaches on Entebbe road or better still chill out at Boda Boda bar at the Garden City roof top. You must be above 25 though.

It is that time of the year when lovers express love for each other and this time round, it falls on a Sunday so there will be no excuses like I was held up in the jam and so on. Being a Sunday, going to Church would be one way of starting your day.

Chocolates, Sweets mostly those with heart shapes, and rose flowers among others will be exchanging hands. Lovely SMS texts will be making rounds not forgetting Valentine cards. If you were thinking of those places where some of the presents can be got, try Aristoc Booklex located on Kampala road opposite Steers. They also have a branch at Garden City.

Some shops have a tendency of putting goods that are about to expire right by the check out points just to grab your attention, so there is every need to examine that item way before buying, because the gift item meant to fire up situations might only ruin your day.
