Flowers for the Teacher.

It's that time of year again where kids are moving up a year or onto a new school and leaving their favourite teacher behind. And more popular than ever it seems is the gift of flowers.

For some it's just a few stems of gerbera, others a nice little orchid plant. And although we love the business we do feel sorry for the people comming in and ordering 4 or 5 bigger bunches, or 6 or 7, or 8 or 9, or even the very rare 15 bunches at once!

I'm not sure if these people have lots of kids or if their kids have lots of teachers but we welcome it all regardless. For next week the holidays start and Ashley Terrace will be a much quieter place because of it.

If it wasn't for the 5 million upcoming weddings we've got booked we might actually have time to be bored!!!

Also, we just want to say a big hello to all the brave souls who made it to the Edinburgh Canal Festival on Saturday. There was a pretty good turn out but I think that with there being as much water coming out the sky as there was in the canal itself, it wasn't quite what the organisers had hoped for.
