KISSING and cuddling in the back row of a cinema is one thing, cavorting on the back of a bus is another.

But for one day only, Watford's die-hard romantics have permission to make a public declaration of their undying love and make Valentine's day their most cherished yet.

Bus company Arriva, which operates services throughout Watford, is looking for the town's most romantic couple to ride in style on their very own Love Bus.

The couple who can explain why they deserve the back seat of this special service operating on Monday, complete with chocolates and roses, will win the right to claim the back seat as their own love nest.

Heath Williams, managing director of Arriva the Shires and Essex, said: "This won't just be any old back seat, there'll be chocolates, decorations and a Valentine's card - just in case you forgot to buy one.

"We know how popular the back seat can be, so we thought we would inject a bit of romance and colour onto ours."

Those who think they have a story which makes them worthy of a seat on the Love Bus can telephone 0121 362 4029.
