Default Birthday Flower Shite

Girlfriends birthday on Monday and as always I order her some flowers or some chocolates or rosé or something to go to her work to get her through the day! Obviously going to do something else for her but just like to make her work mates think I'm a nice guy etc

Just wondering wether you think this is a nice change from the norm?

I quite like the idea, I was going to do flowers but I did flowers for valentines.

Nevermind, I had to get it ordered so I knew I'd get it for Monday, didn't get the biscuits as I can't have them delivered on Monday, which is gay.

So I randomly clicked on some shit, added a teddy bear and job jobbed!!

Ta anyway

Fuck going to an Interflora. Go to a small independent Florist, you get much more for alot less, most do deliveries.

Go in and ask what you can get for the Ł25-30 see what flowers they have on selection, most get fresh on a monday so will be from the wholesaler's.

Maybe a nice Summer thing like Gerbra's



Or some flash Dolce Vita Roses



Or why not try an Exotic plant like an Orchid. Keep them at a stable temp, not cold and they can last for well over a year.



Add to that a Bottle of Bubbly and a Balloon and your sorted.
