    Valentines day

    Hi I'm looking for some help for this coming Valentines day. I want to send my Fiance some nice flowers or something along them lines she live in Bulacan and I'm wondering if anyone knows a good online florist or has any other ideas of how I can still make it special for her even though we are so far apart.

    Many thanks
    Carl.

    I personally used this lot on several occasions, and apart from one instance which got sorted out in record time, I never had any problems.

    Do I buy the Pig online www.valentines.pigs.com or do I fly one out from the uk?? If so does the pig need a visa if she becomes attached to it and wants to bring it with her when she moves here?

    Are you sure....????
    It will be difficult, I reckon, for this lot to deliver flowers......

    Try this instead.......
    http://islandrose.net/

    Or this for good measure.....

    bulacan is famous for their CHICHARON (pork craklings & pork scratchings!) so no need to buy her a pig lol... maybe their family has got 1 already!


    P.s.
    Think it is better to order now before the prices will go up coz it's the season of hearts...
    You are sweet man! Happy shopping online!

    Advance Happy Valentine you're fiancee will be glad about it
    Don't make promises when you are in JOY. Don't reply when you are SAD.
    Don't take decisions when you are ANGRY. Think twice, Act wise. BE happy.

    Yes its a surprise, sort of got her thinking that she wont be getting anything as I told her its so hard to send anything from here to her there, hahaha little does she know she is getting a nice card and Ive just ordered 2 dozen of the reddest long stem roses from www.islandrose.net to be delivered on the 14th along with a nice vase to put them in!!

    Sure she will love them. Thanks again for all your help and feedback.

    Ok just to bring you up to speed, as ive ordered the roses a vase and a little I love you bear lol I thought it would be best to warn my fiance to make sure she was at home so she can sign for her surprise to which she replied "Oh My God Honey is it a laptop" guess she is in for a shock on the 14th and the shine of my effort has gone !! Women!!!
