    Thanks Paula, still have bits to be added and a little tweaking to be done, I guess it's just like having another shop and needs keeping fresh and up to date.
    I sure hope that you are feeling better. Here's to a great 2009!!! We all need it! and BTW happy New Year!!!
    Paula, Thanks for thinking of me, but you are a few days early. My birthday is on the 23rd. It's a busy month for birthdays in our family: 20th - Glenda (Bloomz wife-my Sister-In-Law), 21st - Logan (3 year old grandson), 22nd - Chelsea (16 year old granddaughter), 23rd - Mine, 29th - Jaxon (1 year old grandson). Phew!!

    Hope you are having a good season!
    Hi Paula! yep, had the baby on his due date: Oct 2nd.... He's 2 and a half months already... Time sure flies!
    I hope you're having a big glass of wine tonight. That wedding party sure had some nerve today! I'm glad it's all done and you get to enjoy Christmas wedding-free... :)

    About VD being on a weekend, don't get too excited as even though the government are trying to sort out the economy I would air more on the side of caution with the buying. I would try to get the men (and ladies) to place their orders early with you (and especially rose orders) and then only buy a small amount extra. I have found that if you run out of roses it's not the end of the world. Better to be left with other more general flowers that the screaming VD stuff.
    Beautiful work!!! I have found that my pics turn out the best when we use a black satin fabric for a back drop and no flash. Can't wait to see more
    Hi!

    Hi Palms got your number....catch ya later at Nottingham. we are leaving bout 1pm should take us bout 2 hrs ? chat later x
    You asked if I had any good suppliers. It has taken me several years to find some I like trust and who's products sell in my area. My best gift line is Terramundi Moneypots. They are basically really fun colourful hand made and painted money boxes that you have to smash to get the money out. So it immediately becomes a repeat seller. They are my best none floral seller by a mile. But when I was in my old premises 1.5 miles down the road they never sold. The company only sells to one company in an area. So if you can get in with them you will be lucky. They can be bought on-line but there is p and p to pay. We sell them at RRP £17.50. They cost £7.65 to buy. I also use JIG which have several warehouses around the UK and ATPgifts for gardening stuff. Apart from the terramundi the others I stick to for Christmas. I also go to the gift trade fairs. I do the one at harrogate as it's local. And I look on their websites. I never impluse buy. I have a vote with my collegues and partner. If we all agree then we trial a small mount. Hope that gives you some ideas.
    Take care Johan
    Good for you, birthdays should be full of fun distractions. Thanks you for becoming my friend.
    I wanted to post something funny and just saw that pic. We both have kids and I knew you'd have a laugh. :)
    Thanks. The party should be fun. 50 years is quite a thing. I am sure there will be laughing and tears.

    Hope you have a great weekend too.
