Talking "My Patriotic Flowers"

Hi Guys,
Just thought i would share some snaps of "My Patriotic Flowers"
As you all know, not really a footy fan, but could not resist posting a couple of snaps







What do you all think???? not bad eh????

Also, i have a free couple of bets, from my bookies (2x £10 bets) to place on the next England game, so would like those that know, to give me the best info on where i should stake the "Dough", ie, first goalscorer, correct score, correct result etc, etc,etc.

So all you so called footy fans, put your best foot forward, and try and "Win" a "Poor man some money,,,,, cheers stupo

Hi guys,
Thanks Yes Petunias, "Bargain Basement" plants, from B&Q, a little while back,(30 for £2.67 i think).
Dont usually buy plants, i usually grow most from seed.
The tray came marked as something like mixed or multi bla bla bla
However, as they were marked in such a way and with the "world cup" on, it just seemed fitting to show them.

Still no takers for any "Bet Suggestions" yet , still not till sunday

Cheers all, cya laters stupo

Hi Paul, what really great patriotic flowers!!

As for a bet suggestion, they are giving 10/1 for either team to win on penalties. Remember that cracking game when England played West Germany in the semi finals of the 1990 World Cup - that was decided on penalties.

England didn't win - West Germany won 4 - 3 on penalties and went on to win the World Cup, but it was a great game!
