Before and after pics of our tree frog in the gallery now Newbee. Ann, perhaps you'd better cover your eyes! He's cute really. It's centipedes that give me the willies.

Look under P for Paco and check out his cute toe pads for climbing all over the glass.

Bouquett'o.....
I assume you mean the clear plastic half moon laid flat things with the instruction sheet that refers to Bouquet'o in Italian?

as luck would have it....(well..when you get to my age you tend to have samples of everything produced since the war)

1x10 size 15/2
1x 3 size 20/2

The size 15/2 would go at the large letter rate which would be about 1.20
the 3 odd larger ones would go at parcel rate which would be too much for only 3

I could send you the 10 smaller ones, probably say £10.00 inc postage etc.

Is it worth it?

Hi Elouise
We use Metz and have found a few flowers in poor condition just lately. All we do now is bin them and ask Metz for a credit the following week. It's the least they can do concidering the amount of money we spend with them.

Hi pixieone
Metz do have a minimum order but i believe that if you order less than £200 there is carriage to pay. We have found there flowers to be good. Like all companies some flowers are dearer and some are cheaper. We find being able to sit at home and put the order in on a night time on the net a big plus point.
The quality of flowers we find are hard to beat, but i stand to be corrected on that, This is only our personal opinion. We took a gamble when we started with Metz, but we now find it difficult for anyone else to match there service.
