Lord Noel On Roses

What ho! Pepys...

Lady Jacqueline was chatting with her very good friend "Any idea what you're getting for your birthday," she asked.
"Roses from Bob ... that's a given," said the friend.
"What's wrong with that?"
"Well, he always has 'expectations' after giving me flowers and I don't feel like spending the next 3 days on my back with my legs in the air!"
Lady Jacqueline thought about this for a moment...
...and then asked "Don't you have a vase?"

Tallyho!
Best Wishes - Lord Noel
