This year sweethearts travelled to Wiltshire from as far away as South Wales and the Isle of Wight just to make a big gesture for today’s occasion.

At the local popup post office they can have the Lover postmark stamped on their cards, before volunteers send them off.

The romantic gesture has touched hearts on every continent — including Antarctica.
