Love is in the air

Declan Curry | 11:21 UK time, Tuesday, 14 October 2008

All TV couples develop their own chemistry, some more effectively than others. The air sizzles with furtive romance when Phil and Kirstie are on that . At the other end of the scale, there's the all those years ago (though to be fair that was really no fault of their own).

Naga and I? The jury hasn't decided if we're closer to Richard and Judy or Little and Large.

But we've been making coo-ing noises at each other all morning, after reading in the papers that men at their most romantic when they hit 53. Naga asked if I remembered what it was like, the cheeky minx.

It's reported that and chocolate, treat their partners to a candlelit dinner, or sprinkle rose petals in the bath.

She's quite taken by the idea of rose petals. I think they just clog up the plug hole. We may need to work on that chemistry thing.

Anyway - it's tickled our fancy. We're interested in your most romantic moments. And your least-romantic ones too. You can leave them in the comments or email working.lunch@bbc.co.uk and I'll post the best ones.

In the news - the cost of living has risen sharply again. The inflation rate the Bank of England looks at is up to 5.2 percent. Another inflation rate, used by the Government to set next year's rise in the state pension and benefits, is up to 5.0 percent. Simon is finding out what that means for your pocket.

We're very aware that many of you think living costs are rising even faster than that, as you spend more of your money on food, fuel and council tax - which are all up by more than that. Your comments are welcome - just post them below, and I'll try to use some of them on the programme.

And it's Tuesday so we're looking at gadgets. As well as the one I road-tested yesterday (see blog below), the inventor of the wind-up radio Trevor Baylis is with us.

We're winding him up and setting him off at 1230.
