Told my fella he is lucky that I detest St Vomits Day and he didn't have to queue up with all the other sheep to buy a bunch of scentless, dried-up roses for £25.

I think my dress was cheaper than that and i'll get more use out of it than flowers. I don;t understand flowers. Once you've picked them they are going to die. So its a bit like presenting someone with something thats already half dead. :rotfl:

You should have seen the queues at station florists in central London on Tuesday going home from work. I laughed at one bloke picking up a (miniscule) bunch of yellow mini-roses and clearly wondering if he could get away with something that small...

I notice the racks of St Vomits cards have been swiftly replaced with Mothering Sunday ones.
