What better way to start November than with a piece of S. S. Wesley: ‘Choral Song’. Recorded on the organ of Doncaster Minste. (You’ll notice my head tilting towards the end! There are so many stops/buttons! 😂)
This week Jamie has been away in Southwell singing with York based choir Caelestis. A lovely time away singing with friends. Pieces by Gibbons, Dyson & Stopford.
We’ve missed being in the studio and around Kelso this week, and so it’s lovely to be back to work today!
Have a blessed day and a fabulous weekend!
Much love, Jamie & the team. ###
Friday’s off to a fabulous start with ‘Greig’ this morning!
Flowers and music for a lovely weekend ahead. What could be better, I ask?
We’re here from 9am til 2:30pm today! Lots of beautiful fresh flowers, looking for a home!
Give us a call (and if I don’t answer, please leave a message - I will call you back! 🩷)
Bon weekend! ###

Deck the halls…fa la la la la!
Living these wreaths that we’ve created so far!
A lot of love goes into each one of our wreaths and we hope that shows - there’s still time to place your order! ###
We’ve got something exciting to announce at lunchtime today!!!!!
Keep your eyes peeled…meanwhile, Jamie’s off to out his feet up before the morning rush…all that speeding about had taken its toll! 🤣 ###
Another wee Christmas Carol to get us in the festive spirit…’See in yonder manger low’…a hymn that I used to play to my Granny McKenzie.
We’ve had a fantastic day in the shop, we’re now away to deliver flowers to the beautiful new store at The Hirsel, Brambles, Fine Country Living For All Seasons!
See you on Monday! ###
Time for a quick Christmas Carol I feel…’O little town of Bethlehem’…to soothe you into this cold afternoon…! ###
Monday, Monday - salutations of the day to you & yours.
We hope you had an amazing weekend.
We had another busy one…wedding flowers galore and Handties coming out of our ears!
Open today between 9am to 3:30pm, with a lovely selection of ready made Handties and arrangements ready for new homes. ###.
May this new month of the year bring you much joy and happiness.
Happy 1st of March!
‘What a wonderful change in my life has been wrought, since Jesus came into my heart!’ a good toe-tapper to get your day off to a fine start!
We will be opening at 10am today. Sorry. ###
‘Fold you wings of love around me’, by Ivor Novello.
Happy Valentine’s Day lovely people!
Today is a day to celebrate our love not just just for one person, but even for friends.
‘If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal…Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud…Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth…Love never fails…And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.’ (1 Corinthians 13: 1, 4, 6, 8 & 13.)
We will be open til 5:30pm today! Lots of time to grab a lovely bouquet of flowers, so don’t panic.
Have a great day! Much love, Team FBM. ###
By heck I’m a quick worker…had to answer the telephone a couple of times…nae flies on us here! Haha!
Have a cracking FRIYAY!!!
Treat yourself or someone else to beautiful fleurs for the weekend and longer!
Today is the LAST CHANCE to order your Valentine’s bouquets at secure prices! Be in touch for more details! ###
Good morning lovely people!
It’s all go here at the shop this week. 🎄❤️🎄
One of the reasons we are not taking on any more order is because of the new variant. Sorry to mention the elephant in the room. We want to keep you and us safe and sadly if one of us is ‘pinged’, then we’re up sh*t creek without a paddle I’m afraid. 🚣🏻♂️
If we forget something, don’t get pissy or start shouting at me or my staff. We’re human. Not so pleasant pleasantries will probably be used as I won’t put up with it from anybody. 🤬🎄
I was reminded by a good friend of the ‘be kind’ that we were all in full support of a few months ago. We’re all trying our best.
Keep well, spread festive cheer where’er you go and keep smiling. 🎄🍾🥂
Much love,
Jamie & the girls at FBM ###.
