Let's talk about flower arranging

[SoGone]

I initially thought this was a good idea for a thread, but now I'm thinking not.

[mark]

you are right with your second thought!!!

Until further notice, this thread is now officially about Bernard Butler's hairdo.

No Brett's fringe is better - was of course the nickname I used at the olde suede.net forum - and one of my questions got printed in a suede fanzine!!!! yay!!!!

[SoGone]

"Brett's fringe," hahaha...is it anything like a kinky afro?

I hate it when my mum gets rid of the paper that wraps the flowers. I mean, this is one of the main things that gives the bouquet the nice look it has. But she just hates dealing with the paper while putting the flowers in a vase.

wow I've actually managed to talk about this topic.

What paper that wraps the flowers? I confess that I know nothing about flower arranging. Educate me, please.

Oh, and for managing to actually post something relevant to the original topic idea, we salute you.

erm surely u know that bunches of flowers come wrapped in paper???!!!!

[SoGone]

I actually didn't. I never thought about it. And if you'd asked me to guess, I would have thought they were tied up with string or gum bands or something...

[mark]

omg!!!! fool!

[SoGone]

That's ok marky, we can't all be experts on things as useless as floral bouquets.

[mark]

I'm no expert - i've never bought a bunch of flowers in my life!!!! I just observe things and i'm not stupid!!!!!!

[SoGone]

I guess that's part of the problem...I don't observe things.

Oh, and I'm stupid. Stupid, stupid, blame Cupid.
