Valentine's Day is fast approaching and many couples across Merseyside and beyond will be reminiscing and making plans to celebrate.
But like many things in the city, the dating scene has vastly changed throughout the generations. Before dating apps and social media as we know it today, couples in the region will remember staying in contact via home landlines or texting on the most basic of mobile phones.
