I hate making up a bouquet in front of a punter! I absolutely love making them when I'm on my own, but I panic when someone's watching and everything goes to hell and a bucket! Does anyone else have the problem that they need glasses to do close work but cannot wear them to do anything further away? I get confused and forget to put them back on and then can't understand why the bouquet is a blur - I once thought I would snip a bare stem off a flower in a bouquet I was just handing to the customer, forgot I needed glasses and ended up snipping off one of the leather leaves I'd carefully framed the arrangement with. The customer was in a hurry and had to go off with it as it was... Needless to say, he's never been back (though I did give him an instant and substantial reduction!).
