Florist News

where's my ambush?

BOO!!!! Er, you need to tell me who your supplier is?!

aarggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, blimey Alice - you frightened the life out of me there, I nearly needed Sarah's polysterene tombstone!

Heemskerk is who I use - email Martin on m.dekker@heemskerk.org - he can let you know who comes to your area and when and give you a trial login so you can look at prices/stock and then set you up proper like.

Fantastic. I'm going to be a busy girl tomorrow checking out all these new people. Thank you.x

Hi Alice,
why wont Metz supply both of you? I use them and when the rep came in to see me he also visited the other Florist in town and asked if she would be interested in using them. He said it made it easier for the drivers if a couple of us in the same area used them.I have to agree it is far easier ordering online it gives you time to think and plan what you need.

i started using metz thinking i would be the only one in my street but the driver went to that who shall not be named florist?! and started suppling them so i bloody stopped using them now have the fab geko lorry come to me instead and low and behold them who shall not be named boo hiss don't have them anymore funny!!!!!

I actually met one of the metz drivers on wed.

I was so disappointed he wasnt dutch, i said " oh, i thought you would be dutch"

he said, "only after a few pints"

don't know whether our driver last night was dutch or not but am sure he'd had a few, he'd made a right mess, knocking stuff over and tripping over things, he'd left a trail of chaos in his wake for us to clear up this morning!

The rep wants to check its okay with the other shop first as he's supplied them for ten years. To be honest, if they don't want my money.... plenty of other decent suppliers as I've found out through this thread. I can't imagine I'd even order the same stuff as them but if they feel threatened by me then thats quite funny! Still, no answer yet from other florist but not really bothered now.

Rosa wouldn't you get yourself a bit special if you had to do night time deliveries! Bet it can be quite spooky in all those dark shops!
