Blokes are notorious for leaving things to the last minute .... with that in mind and with Valentines day on Saturday -

Have you ordered flowers for your missis?

Will you be ordering?

Will you be giving it a miss this year because of the credit crunch?

I'll be buying Mrs.B some flowers, no lilly's though as they smell like cack to me.
I'll then be guarnteed a nice fillet of dead cow, home made chips & gravy for tea, after a hard day on the bank Saturday..... she loves me

Mind you the vase is already full as I bought her flowers last week as well after she became a glamourous grandma at 42 !

I know, just keep telling yourself 'it's cheaper than buying jewelery' & it doesn't hurt as much when you hand the cash over

Yeah the price is ridiculous this year... flowers come from Holland, Pound has gone through the floor against the Euro and the flower distributors have chosen this year to ramp the prices up because they see valentines as their chance to make enough money for the rest of the year - and its the flower shops that suffer when ASDA and TESCOS start selling stuff they don't sell all year and they do it at a massive loss to get people in the shops!
