Happy Valentine's Day

Tortured, beheaded and then your skull is displayed in a glass case for people to gawk at: hey nothing says love quite like it!



This great picture of the purported skull of San Valentino in Santa Maria in Cosmedin is part of a wonderful photo set by mym which can be found here.

    Many thanks for the praise Willym. I take the classical injunctions abouit hospitality very seriously, so next time you are in London, do come for a beer (you can also use our spare bedroom if you want to save your pennies for seeing plays)!
