Just as I was leaving for this morning’s service the Funeral Director called to give me the heads up that the flowers hadn’t arrived. The florist had forgotten or got the date wrong! Theme yellow and she loved sunsets, perfect in autumn. I am no florist but with a few dahlia’s from my neighbour and a whizz round the garden and some yellow ribbon, a handtied bunch of flowers, in case needed. The florist did arrive before the hearse with a floral tribute but mine was still used. There was a small yellow teddy in the flowers as well but I gave that to the granddaughter afterwards. Everything else went perfectly and the family were delighted
