I know someone has requested daffodils and I can't find the
original post... so I'm only posting to the boards (instead of
also posting to the request)-- I hope they see them...

Ah, well, that's not too surprising from a country
where they stuff their dogs into shopping bags
so they can travel free on public transport, keep their
calendars in their toilets, make prostitutes pay tax, and
where  tomorrow is a national holiday dedicated to
selling junk and getting drunk.... oh and some old
biddie's birthday. ;-P

And I like the English name for them:
     "heartsease" - perfect for that beautiful spring flower.

I'm not so fond of the name "pansie" but I do love those flowers. Thanks
for posting that, Joan. It looks just like the violas that are easing my
heart just outside my window.

Hahahahah! :-))))) This one just gave me and my fiance a 
giggle. Brilliant stuff! (You can take my initials off the 
beer mug btw - you changed it a bit and added so much to 
it that it's a real shame to spoil your great pic with 
that clumsy 'hjw'! :-)  )

Hahaha! Thanks for the congrats! :-)
We've been engaged for ages, actually,
since New Year 1997. But we tend to keep it quiet
and still refer to each other as boyf/girlf to
save people getting their hopes up, because we intend
to have a very long engagement, which nobody seems 
to be able to understand! :-)  

Just before ppl start asking for invites. :-)

*hugs*

Ah, it's Mother's Day tomorrow (at least in Finland), and I was
thinking my head off with what to put on her card.

Well, then I decided to browse backwards in this group, and found your
daffodils! The first bigger daffodil was just great for the card, so I
used that.

THANK YOU! :-)
