    :oRight I'm off to buy some flowers for the garden, I'm not very good at choosing flowers, a couple weekends ago i spent an hour and a half choosing,I filled the trolley and when I got to the counter I only ended up with a rose as everything else I chose would die off and not grow back so have to go and choose ones that do come back:o
