Cool

So that it's easier to keep track of things and for people to decide, is it possible to somehow create a poll for:

... Wreathe

I like the second one, if you add up a little personal close, like "we'll miss your company along". the 4th one is equally right. It's true what KG says, that this is not about what one may want, but if it was me, i would like not to hear long phrases... i'm not much good with words myself.

for the whreat, (sorry the linking system is generic)
i would say , at http://www.uksflorist.co.uk
Pink and White Wreath - (C29)
it's the least depressive i could find.

uhm, they have the shops open, but i don't know if they also do the composition work in the weekends. it may be.
but it would be ok to use the timing you suggest, i guess: still, i don't know how it works the shipping.

I know somebody else was also going to use Internet transfer but I've forgotten who that was (please PM me or reply in this thread)
How does internet transfer work?. I still need to donate my 20 pounds worth, but im not sure of the best way to do it from Australia?. I dont have a PayPal account.

Sorry for the delay Damien.

Hmmm, I'm not sure to be honest from overseas... I actually wanted to send some cash to my mum in Sydney and had to fill in a "Making a Barclays International Payment" form. It was a real pain in the butt, cost £25 and took 8-10 days

Saying that, maybe the Internet Banking of your bank in Australia allows international transfers? I will PM you the Barclays account details now, please let me know if you require any other information afterwards

That's ok, not an issue. I think we will keep the donations / contributions "window" open for atleast 1 month, longer if people would like?

That's Galahad's post so I am unable to edit it...

I don't think it's really necessary as everything has been accounted for and I've replied to everyone in this thread

However if you would definitely like this to happen then let me know and I'll try to post it at the beginning of the thread (with the help of bippym).

Florists...

Ok, I've contacted all 4 florists concerning what would be the latest time that I can order the wreath to guarantee a delivery of 9am on Tuesday... Here are the details:


The Colonnade Florist
- Contacted by phone.
- Saturday 12pm.

flower-uk.com
- Contacted by phone.
- Friday 4pm.

Exquisite Floral Designs
- Contacted by phone.
- Saturday 12pm.

iflorist
- No phone number, used web assistant.
- Not very helpful, kept saying order now, will not use this company.


Basically all of them said that it also depends on the type of wreath. We need to make a definitive decision by say 2pm tomorrow. Another thing to keep in mind is that it's Mother's day on Sunday so most florist are very busy...
