LONDON -- Not everyone looks forward to Valentine's Day.
If you're the type of person that physically cringes at the thought of anything even vaguely romantic, then cast your eye over the images below -- we've pushed aside anything corny and scoured social media for the most gloriously un-romantic things the UK has to offer.
From awkward Twitter exchanges to puns that are hard to love, it turns out Britain and romance are a long way from a match made in heaven...
1. This Tesco supermarket display.
2. And this display from Sainsbury's.

It's not easy to make Dorking sound romantic, to be fair.
