woo hoo!!!! it's our first blog....been meaning to do this for a long while now, but usually get waylaid by the general runnings of our shop - pollination.
'we' are nik and gill and we have been in the flower trade now for over 10 years (nik has lost much hair over this time, and gill grown some!). we have a flower shop in edinburgh - 42 ashley terrace edinburgh eh11 1ry....0131 313 1011....www.pollination.co.uk
at the moment there is us, leona and lorna (our fabulous florists) and the recent addition, olive - our 6.5 month old gorgeous golden lab puppy, who is yet to pick up the scissors, but does manage to pick up everything else that she can chew on...
today we've managed to leave the shop for a few hours taking olive for a wee meander up around corstorphine hill, before staring at the computer for much of the day. we left the shop in leonas trusty manicured hands, filled with beautiful summer flowers after preping the latest dutch delivery hot off the wagon..the most impressive flower being a stunning and huge blue hydrangea which we'd ordered for one of the 4 weddings this weekend (4 - omg! guess it is the season!)
must have been consuming way too much caffeine today though, cos as well as getting our fingers oot the proverbial and starting this blog, we also managed to work out this twitter phenomonominum, well we joined it at least...hot news in twitter land seems to be the death of david carrodine (bill in kill bill - a poster of which incidently hangs, edges curling in the pollination loo!). you can find us on twitter under 'pollinations' - with the 's' cos someone else inevitably got in there first darn it!
so as the dog is jumping manically, the cat is purring in my ear and stomachs are growling all around, it must be feeding time at the zoo....hopefully we'll manage to squeeze in an update of our flower world in the comings days....
