Unwrapping our Valentine's offers

Each package includes a bunch of beautiful fresh roses.

Give your sweetheart something unique and memorable, purchase one of our romantic Valentine's package vouchers and receive a bunch of stunning red roses.
Capture your love in the picture!!

If you prefer to celebrate in a more traditional way, you could try some of the following;
In Wales wooden love spoons were carved and given as gifts on February 14th. Hearts, keys and keyholes were favorite decorations on the spoons. The decoration meant, "You unlock my heart!"

In the Middle Ages, young men and women drew names from a bowl to see who their valentines would be. They would wear these names on their sleeves for one week. To wear your heart on your sleeve now means that it is easy for other people to know how you are feeling.

In some countries, a young woman may receive a gift of clothing from a young man. If she keeps the gift, it means she will marry him.

Some people used to believe that if a woman saw a robin flying overhead on Valentine's Day, it meant she would marry a sailor. If she saw a sparrow, she would marry a poor man and be very happy. If she saw a goldfinch, she would marry a millionaire.

Think of five or six names of boys or girls you might marry, As you twist the stem of an apple, recite the names until the stem comes off. You will marry the person whose name you were saying when the stem fell off.

Pick a dandelion that has gone to seed. Take a deep breath and blow the seeds into the wind. Count the seeds that remain on the stem. That is the number of children you will have.

If you cut an apple in half and count how many seeds are inside, you will also know how many children you will have.
Whichever way you choose to celebrate your love- Have a great Valentine's Day.

The lovely pooch on the Christmas Card above is Becky, here her owner Tara talks about her.

Becky is a xMaltese - Australian Terrier, she is three years old.

""Becky was originally a stray at a local pound. As with many pounds they have a time limit or capacity issues and are not able to rehome all the animals that they receive. The RSPCA was doing a routine transfer to one of these pounds and saw Becky and a few other dogs and offered to take from the pound to relieve them.
Becky passed an RSPCA Behavioural Assessment and a Health Check. I quickly fell in love with Becky and decided to adopt her."
