I love working remotely from Head Office interstate - no inter-office politics, no micro-management from the boss & no attendance at the compulsory Friday drinks! However, there are moments when I miss the companionship of my colleagues (for only a split second mind you!), & I've had some good wins to celebrate this week. So firstly, a bouquet of these gorgeous roses to Moi, for closing sales on 2 large Accounts I've been working on since last year - high five's all round!!
And secondly, & most importantly, bouquets to all of you - for the wonderful, humorous, touching, encouraging, supportive & delightful comments left here @ The Hedge this week. This is why Blogging is so fantastic & so these roses are for everyone who visits, or even just lurks, enjoy them & the happiest of weekends to you!

you are such a lovely person and one day I would love to meet you, congratulations and the flowers are so gorgeous x
ReplyDeleteThank you Millie...they smell wonderful. It is so nice to see flowers in the middle of our snowy winter. ♥Rosemary
ReplyDeleteJust so kind...you deserve the flowers!! They are gorgeous. Have a great weekend. Amanda x
ReplyDeleteWell done to you! And virtual flowers this week are even better given the temps you are dealing with in SA!

Sounds like you've earned them, they are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful bouquet! Have a lovely weekend Millie!
ReplyDeleteMillie,
ReplyDeleteLater when we crack open a bottle of very cold bubbly (on this horrible hot day) I will toast up to the sky in the direction of Adelaide to you Millie on your successful sale. Well done!
Also I think you should do more writing, you really are quite a wonderful writer.
Cheers, xx Coty
Well done! I've been reading your blog over the last 2 months and it's a delight. I have very fond memories of Stirling as we stayed at the gorgeous L'Orangerie B&B with David and Clare about 4 times whilst our son was training to become a commercial pilot at Parrafield.I shudder to think of all the divine gardens in Stirling in this appalling heatwave! Keep being yourself. It is lovely to see an Australian blog that does not come over as a pale reflection of the American dream! Gorgeous photos!
ReplyDeleteJill - thanks for your lovely comments. Clare & David are our neighbours in the next street & yes, L'Orangerie is just divine. Did you know that that sadly they've closed down? They are now spending half their time up in Qld. at their beach house in semi-retirement.
ReplyDeleteClare has the most amazing style & she did my wedding flowers for me -the only time I cried on the day was when she arrived with my bouquet! If you are a regular reader, you'll understand that I spent the rest of the day laughing at MOTH's misshaps - now's there's a weeks worth of posts!
congratulations Millie. I'm sure you could sell ice to eskimo's. Those flowers looks so delightful. Have a wonderful weekend. Hope you stay on your high all weekend too, Hayley
ReplyDeleteYou sweet thing Millie and I love the flowers - they have brightened my dark and and yes, it is snowing again in London morning.
ReplyDeleteHuge congratulations on your closures - you never say too much about your professional life but I suspect you are something of a guru in what you do.
Have a wonderful, easy and relaxed weekend and thank you for your Laurel Hedge - a true favourite, xv.
Oh you sound such a go getter Millie.... well done. You deserve the bouquet, you always have such beautiful, encouraging things to say to us all. I treasure your comments.. they make my heart sing... and I always drag hubby over to say "look what Millie said.. isn't she gorgeous!" A-M xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful roses - you must have been chuffed; well done you.
ReplyDeleteIts always a pleasure to visit The Hedge :)
Millie, you deserve a huge congratulations.
ReplyDeleteNot just for your business successes this week, but also for sharing your beautiful inspiration and amusing stories with us every week!
Have a wonderful, hopefully relaxing weekend.

Congratulations of on closing the sales. The flowers are wonderful - thank you for sharing them with us.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that your hard work paid off with such a great success Millie!
ReplyDeleteHasn't the weather today been horrendous - hope you, MOTH and the garden haven't been feeling it too much!
Just found your blog today! Congratualtions on your success and I will most definitely come back to visit!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful flowers, thanks for sharing :)
Well done Millie!
ReplyDeleteI was in Adelaide for the weekend and I had a bottle of bubbly on Friday evening, so I now dedicate that bottle to you! And yes I did enjoy it.
The flowers are gorgeous too.
Lovely bouquet! We can share them with you! Hope you are staying cool!
ReplyDeleteENJOY your weekend!

Hi Millie, David and Clare were heading to Noosa (!!) when I spoke to them last. I'm selfishly hoping they won't like it too much!By the way have you done a piece on Ruth Irving's darden at One Tree Hill, it's gorgeous and also has a lovely and very private B&B with Mr Darcy-esque views, although the surrounding "restaurants" aren't brilliant. Also I wonder what has happened to Michael and David now after they sold Thorn Park. Clare Valley riesling, especially Killakanoon is our favourite. Thanks again Millie am so grateful for your blog!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Those flowers would be incentive for me to do just about anything, they are beautiful! Your blog is a lovely way for me to be dreamy! Shanyn
