Hubbard Glacier, Alaska

You’re standing on the balcony of your cruise ship, a glass of fizz in hand, taking in the scale of the dazzling, lustrous turquoise-blue ice before you.

The majesty of the six-mile wide, 600ft-high glacier is best enjoyed a deux. Of course, you are not alone on a cruise ship, but on the privacy of your balcony you can feel alone with the glory and might of nature as chunks of ice the size of a 10-storey building break away and crash into the waters of Yakutat Bay.

Romantic? For sure, your souls will sing together at this stirring sight. Alaska cruises are available with major lines such as Princess, Holland America, Celebrity, Cunard, Royal Caribbean and Norwegian.

COLD COMFORT OK, I want all you heat lovers to keep your cool as I have the news we have all been waiting for. Someone has gone and invented a wraparound hot water bottle. I repeat, A HOT WATER BOTTLE THAT WRAPSYES AROUND YOUR BODY. Argos, £24.99, see you in the queue A wine company is on the lookout for volunteers to take part in its taste testers. So you will be paid £200 to sit at home and guzzle a year’s free supply (not in the one go, obviously). Eh, I’ll certainly be applying as I have plenty of previous experience.

PIGGING IN WAY, ROSÉ

We should all be making ourselves pretty and looking forward to a nice night out tonight, but this is a Valentine’s like no other, so we’ll just have to make do with the M&S Love Sausage, a botle of wine, fluffy PJs and Netflix and chill.
