100% i spoke to the guy face to face - he actually had the cheek to walk into my shop. I normally would have told him to p*ss off but it had been a real slow week!!!

About 10 years back Valentines day this guy walked in as I knew him I went to up to him talked away but wasn't getting the usual response then started to feel like a prat thinking OMG this isn't who I think it is but it is his double. He ordered 2doz rose bouquet I gave him a card for his message and he said 'You do it thanks for last night one of the best yet will do it again soon all my love for now and forever xxxxx' Not a problem he paid and left I said 'oh I have made a proper arxx of myself I thought that was -------' Sssshh he's back. Hello could I also send flowers to ------------ yes sir what would you like to send a single rose. ' would you like a boxed rose, a rose in a vase' when he interrupted and said 'No just one wrapped in paper' and the message sir 'To My Wife on Valentine's Day' I know this couple well we belong to the same church and yes they are still together

15 x one thing
14 x another thing
13 x yet another thing
12 x another entirely different thing
and so on, sorry, been a long day and can't recall the specifics of what flower went where hehehe!

Have to say we have actually started to cheat and count the heads on multi headed things like santini and spray roses etc instead of the actual stems of flowers. It was a whopper today, weighs a ton and took 2 of us to finish it.

What interesting wedding anniversary gifts have you been asked to create?

what a lovely thought, for this man to do this for his wife.
