Below you’ll find notes and quotes from previous years’ events as well as links to some news and press coverage that Love on the Run has gotten.

“Dear Porridge Papers, Thank you for delivering my love note to my wife this Valentine’s Day. I know the “Love on the Run” service was complimentary, but I saw it as a gift. It should have been obvious to anyone who entered your store that great effort and care were given to planning and implementing the set up of the old typewriters, packaging of the miniature bottles and mapping of the delivery routes. The snow falling on February 14th probably didn’t seem exceptionally unpleasant to your couriers, but my wife, Marianne, and I recently moved to Lincoln from Florida and don’t particularly enjoy going out in the cold; your commitment to deliver the notes in spite of the poor weather was appreciated. The fact that your couriers were giving up time that could have been spend with Valentines of their own did not go unnoticed, either.

Undoubtedly, the dedications made on your store front will be removed soon, but at the time I’m writing this letter, Marianne is still getting a smile from slowing down while driving on South Street to see her name drawn inside a heart with yellow marker on your window. Thanks again, and here’s hoping that the fortune you have spread will be returned to you.

Yours Truly, Dave”
