    Say it with flowers

    Thought I had a secret admirer.

    Doorbell just went - and there stood florist with enormous bunch of flowers. Pink and purple ones.

    I snatched the card - they were a 'thank you' from (ex)ClientCo. Really sweet of them - and completely unexpected.

    Think I might 'lose' the card before hubby gets home to keep him guessing.

    Hope the next client is as romantic!

    Tell your hubby you bought them for yourself because he never does.

      If that's what passes for amusement in your household then go for it.

        More to the point, your husband might start wondering just what kind of "work" you've been doing if your clients are giving you flowers

              Stick 'em right in front of the goggle box then. Flowers, nice!
              Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

                Put them where the telly was and hide the telly. See how long it takes for him to realise he's not watching Gardener's World.
