Valentine couples are being urged to do some groundwork before booking their romantic meal out. Steve Waste-of-Space, Reading's Lead Councillor for Environment and Consumer Affairs until May, said: "Don't make your loved one sick on Valentine's Day. A quick click on the 'scoresonthedoors' website will show people exactly how their local eating places score and this should help them make an informed decision about where to go. I'd also heartily recommend that you take two condoms with you on your date and make sure you follow Reading Borough Council policy and double-bag. You just cannot be too careful, Pete Ruhemann still can't work out why there are so many teenage pregnancies in Reading. And whilst you're at it, why not book in an HIV test for you and your loved one before you go out? You might also want to consider getting a chartered accountant to go over each other's tax liabilities and contact the CSA to see if there are any hidden skeletons in the closet. Properly prepared you can look forward to a wonderful unspoiled romantic evening thanks to advice from Reading Borough Council."
