ANTI VALENTINES DAY SONG (Aoibhinn)

I’m already bored to tears with soppy, lovey-dovey Valentines Day chat. So on seeing this hilarious animated video twist the usual Valentine’s Day story, I knew I had to share. From Supercool Creative, an LA digital creative agency, this animation tells the tale of a poor wee lad who catches his Mrs. doing the dirty on the most romantic day of the year. This isn’t the usual Valentine’s rubbish that we are usually subjected to, so if you’re boycotting Valentines or just in need of a good giggle then feast your eyes on this bad boy.

HUSBAND TAKES WIFE ON DATE AND THEN SLEEPS WITH MISTRESS (Melissa)

So this husband and father is “spicing up” the traditional Valentine’s Day with his wife- by sleeping with his new mistress after a romantic lunch. 
After 17 years of marriage Simon Taylor feels he isn’t getting enough from his wife in the bedroom so has found a new woman and an apartment to go along with her. His wife does not know about the flat or money he is spending on the new woman so when she reads this confession in The Sun today, hopefully she will think about keeping a closer eye on her “devoted husband” and realise what he is up to. Imagine you were happily married for all that time to find out that your husband was actually sleeping with another woman. Happy Valentine’s Day!

ALTERNATIVE VALENTINE’S DAY CARDS (Victoria)

If like me, a cheesy Valentine’s Day card makes you want to hurl, then the following should be right up your street. Or if you’ve forgotten to send a card to your beau, then how about one of these e-cards? From the extremely witty to the darn right weird, there is something to suit everyone.  What is your favourite?

FATBUZZ FOR BREAKFAST (Sarah)

Having just been to a New Media Breakfast it seems fitting to use this as a base for today’s high five. Giving this morning’s presentation was Gordon White of Fat Buzz, a design, social media and marketing company who have a whole load of fantastic ideas about how to make your business more successful through the use of various technologies, tools and branding. Today’s breakfast focused on video, something we at Holyrood PR are already very involved in, but even so we came away with some new idea which will hopefully filter through into our work. For more on Fat Buzz and the work they do with various other organisations, check out their Facebook page, Twitter or website.

THE HEAD GEAR OF DR. SEUSS (Aimee)

Dr. Seuss doesn’t need much of an introduction. He is the king of children’s books and of course the creator of Christmas crasher, the Grinch. But what might  not be so well known was his penchant for mental head gear – until now. For the first time this year, his hat closet is out and 26 of his favorite toppers are traveling the country as part of the Hats Off to Dr. Seuss! exhibition. Flavorwire has top pics of 10 of these gems and what a conkin’ bunch he had and I doubt many could have pulled these bad bots off. Bonnets off.
