My sister-in-law lived in Northampton for a while. She now lives in Southampton. So i guess it' just a natural thought. But I have been to Scotland so i know there is life north of Milton Keynes!

I can't see any florist listed in the 'Trafford'
Is it because the rent is around a million p.a. ?

The only florist in the trafford ctr is jane packer, in selfridges.
I dont think any florist could afford the rent in there, plus your electricity bill would be massive as its like a sauna in there all the time so air con would be a must, running 24 hours a day.

Hi Jan. Welcome to forum, nice to see that I'm not the only one with 30 years experience. I agree on the motivation part. It can be hard sometimes, I'm sure you find it here.
