As the worst night of the year for going out for dinner, otherwise known as Valentine’s Day, approaches on 14 February, lawyers might be interested to hear this little tale:

A chap walks into a post office one day to see a middle-aged, balding man standing at the counter. He is methodically placing ‘Love’ stamps on bright pink envelopes with hearts all over them. Then he whips out a perfume bottle and starts spraying scent all over the letters. Unable to contain his curiosity any longer, the first chap goes up to the balding man and asks him what on earth he is doing. ‘I’m sending out 1,000 Valentine cards signed, "Guess who?"’, he says, matter-of-factly. ‘But why?’ asks the man. ‘I’m a divorce lawyer.’

Now don’t go getting any ideas, please.
