I love flowers.
My favourite are simple daffodils although I am happy to be wooed by a sunflower or a rose.
Sadly, feel free to say awwww in compassionate tones here, I don’t get them very often, except for when I buy them myself (more awwwws are appropriate here.)
I am hoping that this post may remind my dearest other half that Valentines Day is peeping round the corner and since we spent last year in hospital with BB on Valentines Day perhaps some Valentine’s Day Flowers could be in order.
For the rest of you, I am working with the lovely folks at Prestige Flowers to give one reader the chance to see roses on Valentines morning.
It is a super easy competition, to enter simply leave a comment telling my other half why I should get flowers this year; I will make sure he gets the message.
For an extra entry please tweet “I think he who helped create them needs to buy @janeblackmore flowers for Valentines http://wp.me/p2m5cD-125” and leave me a comment to say you have done so.
The prize – Six beautiful roses, a vase to present them in and a lovely bottle of wine.
The competition will end at midnight on February 1st and the winner will be notified by email or twitter within 24 hours.
Good luck!

I remember my nephew was young once responding to a ‘why’ question with the answer “because Yes” and i couldn’t argue back. So although I could give a million and one reasons why Northern Mum absolutely and definitely should be given flowers this year for valentines, I am going to say “because Yes!” because then there is no getting out of that. x

Oi, Mr Northern Mum! You should buy your lovely lady some flowers for Valentines day this year, because she’s been through a bloomin rough time and has still come out of it, standing on two feet!

Dear He Who Helped Create Them,
You should definitely buy your lovely wife Jane some flowers for Valentine’s Day.
You should also buy her gin.

He Who Helped Create Them, I think you need to treat your lovely wife to (a massive bouquet of) flowers because, quite frankly she deserves them! Not that she should have to deserve the gift of flowers, however!

You should tell your husband, ‘I like flowers as much as you like dinner- remember that!…’
Hey Mr… Buy your lovely wife flowers, you know, just because you love her.

Dear Mr Northern Mum, Your wife, she’s pretty cool, right? And what’s that, you would hate it if you didn’t show her that? Well flowers are a great way to show her how much you care. Ok, that was your cue to go get flowers. Like now.

Dear Mr northern mum,
I don’t think you should buy flowers this valentines day… yes that’s right, I don’t think you should. That’s when everyone gets them. You should buy them the other 364 days of the year to show your lovely wife how much you appreciate her.
(OK, I realise that could get expensive/v. hayfeaverish so weekly instead of daily should be fine!)
Regards
Another flowerless wife
