HANDS up if you hate Valentine's Day.
The shops have been overflowing with red hearts dangling in your face for the past two weeks. Restaurants are out of bounds unless you're a starry-eyed couple.
All over the city, couriers are busy delivering bunches of long- stemmed roses eagerly watched by women sitting at their desks, holding their breath, praying that the bouquet is for them, only to be by-passed and then to hear the squeals of delight from the tall, blonde marketing girl in the next cubicle.

Yes, there are men out there who are so low that they break up during the most romantic month of the year - if you believe all the marketing.
So before you call in sick to hibernate at home, there is a better way of embracing February 14.
The Hilton Hotel in Sydney has launched its break-up package for the broken-hearted among us. It realises that in this day and age, not everyone is looking for the cliched romance weekend with tacky roses thrown in for good measure. But don't drown your sorrows at home by yourself, it's five-star treatment that is required.
The package is designed for you and your best friend but the hotel provides extra rollaway beds; or if you're in a really fragile way and require the whole Wonder Woman gang, then inter-connecting rooms can be organised for extra.
So to get the therapeutic evening started, like any good Hollywood movie, there is plenty of ice cream and nearly a kilo of Belgium chocolate in three indulgent flavours to devour. Of course, all scientists say how much women need this delicious stuff. So it's a very important step in the recovery.

Once you've wiped away the tears, and the chocolate has kicked in, you'll be ready for some physical activity - that's dancing.
Apart from a great view over the lights of Sydney, your room will have non-stop dance and party music (and you won't hear a Barry White tune all night) to bring out your long-lost flashdance moves.
The piece de resistance is the meltdown service - not for the dumpee, no, for all the jewellery that links of london the cad has given you.
You'll consult with an expert from the hotel and create a new piece of tastefully-designed bling.
So be happy that you don't have to spend Sunday night staring into his beady eyes, talking about the weather or listening to him rave on about his new car tyres. Yawn.
The Hilton aims to give broken-hearted gals their old lease of life back in full strength. Go forth and conquer.
