    Team Tiverton: Doing our bit for Clinton's

    Kirst, Ali and I* are available for all your Valentine cards needs. Such classics as the following are suitable for all cards; we feel we excelled ourselves really and I have not laughed so much in a long time [part of that was due to the Top Gear Olympic Special though**]
    "Roses are red. Violets are blue. Frogs are green and so are you."

    "Hop hop onto my lilly pad"

    "Draw a plug and say something like you spark my plug"

    "[picture of frog]This was you before. [proper photo] This is you now but don't worry, you still spark my plug."

    "Roses are red. Violets are blue. The frog has got my heart and I'm turning blue" ["No, you'd be dead"]

    "Roses are red. Frogs are green. My little heart is like a shrivelled bean."

    "Frog: Forever Risking Our *trails off*"

    "Frog: Forever wRiting on Our Gravestones...with a silent w"

    *With help from Lucy and Tariq
    **Ali: The road is shorter though. TV: The road and bobsled run are the same length.

    Do you mean the plural of Genius? Geniuses is a plural, although not a correct one I don't think....When I see Genii, it makes me think of a geni out of a bottle...hmmm i feel a poem coming on...

    Roses are red,
    Violets are blue,
    here is a poem,
    Just for you!

    Here is a Geni,
    Sat in his bottle,
    Who when rubbed
    jumped out at full throttle,

    "One Wish!" He boomed
    Down to Kirst
    Who sat down,
    Fearing the worst.

    'A card! A card!'
    She did shout
    And then for good measure
    She put on a pout

    'A card it is'
    He did say
    Clicked his fingers
    and vanished away

    Kirst was left
    holding the card
    'Goodness!'she said
    'That wasn't so hard!'
