    If you get flowers delivered internationally, they arrive with a handwritten card, written by the person who sent them (in the US, Oz, wherever) to you.
    How can they do this?

    It keeps me awake at night.

    I got flowers delivered before with a handwritten message.

    The secret is
    it was the florist's handwriting :eek:

    Bet you won't love the next delivery just as much now you know.

    Im still freaked out by the mobile.

    It's a bit mad. Imagine trying to explain it to the Titanic generation, you can hear the voice on the other person, oh and it fits in your pocket, vibrates and almost every person in the developed world owns one.

    Burned at the stake you'd be.

    Sweetheart- have a mug of warm cocoa, it'll help you sleep.
    Also,keep the flowers in another room-maybe the pollen is affecting your breathing,hence your insomnia.
