    I wouldnt mind what day I got them...unless it was because they'd done something REALLY wrong...

    soooo with you here Bunny! DS's dad used to buy flowers at birthdays and mothers day (and when I gave birth to DS), not that often over the years but enough, horrible ex on the other hand used to buy me them - and always OTT expensive bouquets - whenever he'd been a drunken eejit and that was frequently! You'd just end up looking at the nice flowers thinking of the horrible reason they were there!:mad:

  • On another vein are flowers not an admission of guilt in some circumstances. Sorry to piddle on the bonfire just trying to fathom out the superior brain and thinking of the female of the species

    I didn't mean they were for everyone! just some people.

    everyone should go out tomorrow and buy some before the valentines day price hike! and she'll love you even more cos it's not valentines day and you've bought flowers for absolutely no reason. win, win...
