I acknowledge hardworking Australians no matter who they are or where they come from. All those who have contributed to this wonderful country deserve an equal share of gratitude for their contributions. To single any group of individuals out for special homage only denigrates the rest of us.

That is one sure way to garner excessive brownie points.  I did that once and they turned up for the school assembly (she's a teacher).  I was on clover!   :grin

Only 1 in 12 at some places are worth receiving flowers...

Pocket Stocker,

Mine's the same - lilies are her favors - large pink/red ones being her favorites.  :thumbsup

Had to send them to her via on-line ordering (about 4 times the price we usual pay for a really BIG bunch at the local florist's shops.  :eek )

Thought she'd appreciate the thought -  OPPPPS !  Received a text message - " Why you waste so much money for ??? " instead.  :'(

WOMEN !!!   I'll NEVER  be able to figure them out !  >:()   :spank

Also sent her a BIG soft, plush bear to cuddle up with at nights while I'm away.  8)

Noticed she didn't say anything about the bear !   

Our 8 year old niece will probably 'appropriate' the bear for herself within a week anyway.

OH DEAR !!!     Sometimes there's NO way of winning.   :|||| :|||| :||||

Flip  o:)
