I have heard it is customary to bring a rose to your loved ones on a
certain date last month. Strictly
speaking these were already given but I thought it a nice gesture to bring one
to the Mrs to show how much I appreciate her.
The fact that I had to select it from the already carefully arranged
vase without her noticing and get the Boss to clear up the resulting mess was
immaterial to the thought I put into it.
She seemed really impressed with me but rather less so with the Boss as
apparently he had not remembered himself, the colour was wrong and he was
rubbish at flower arranging! There is just no pleasing some women! I thought it was red……but she loves me
anyway!
