It is not a Throwback Thursday #TBT post, but the Echo Show photo below is from a previous year.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
The REAL Valentine’s Day story … (yikes!)
The Catholic martyr St. Valentine was beheaded on that date in the third century, supposedly for breaking a Roman ban on performing marriages. Now in Dublin a church claims to exhibit St. Valentine’s heart; in a Rome basilica his supposed skull is displayed; in a Glasgow friary his skeleton sits in a golden box; in a Prague basilica his shoulder bone is an attraction; and in a Madrid church his remains are encased in glass.
