Not only did I appreciate the phone call to tell me when the rose was being delivered, but I was also so very touched when the message I included to be sent to my parents with the rose was put in an actual wedding anniversary card. I spent a considerable amount of time on the Internet trying to decide which company I should buy my rose from, and I am so very pleased that I chose yours! Thank you again. Kindest regards Sam McFerran Ps. My parents were thrilled with the rose!

From:
Chisholm Carole (A82035) Birbeck CA11 8HW Hi I felt I had to let you
know of my experience with your company. Initially I made a real "hash" of
making my order over the internet, but having spoken to one of your
employees I was told of this. On Monday I re-ordered my patio set with a
vague hope of receiving it before the bank holiday weekend. I telephoned to
make sure I had done it correctly this time and a lovely lady and I had a
good laugh about me being a "dumb blond". The following day a very pleasant
gentleman telephoned me to say my order was ready for despatch and would be
with me some time on Wednesday (if this was not convenient and another day
would be better I was to let him know!) Such service. I was very happy to
take a day off work to wait for my furniture and I didn't have to wait too
long. By lunchtime a very pleasant delivery driver dropped off my very,
very nice patio set. Among the paperwork there was a handwritten note from
"Ben" with a telephone number to contact him should I have any problems.
Said furniture is now put together and gracing my patio - I have never, ever
known such superb service and friendly staff. Please pass on my thanks to
all concerned. A very, very, happy
customer Carole Chisholm
From:
W MOSS Dear Chris, I would just like to say how delighted and
amazed I was to come home this evening to my new patio furniture, ordered
and delivered in less than 24hrs!! It is wonderful to be able to send good comments about
a first class service. I will certainly recommend you and use your
service again in the future. Many thanks and regards to the team, Wendy Moss.

Dear Mr Smith
Having spent most of last weekend trawling the likes of B&Q,
Homebase, FocusDIY and IKEA to gain inspiration for the best
Christmas tree for our new office, whilst googling on Monday, I hit
upon your website and found the perfect tree - black, 6ft, fibre
optic and not only that, 25% off with pocket change delivery
charges. I wasted no time in ordering the tree, which also came
with 20 free lights! I then went back and read the delivery times
(after ordering) and was slightly concerned to read that orders
would be delivered between 2 and 15 days from order. I had visions
of the tree arriving as we were shutting up shop for Christmas. I
hope therefore that you can appreciate my delight when, less than 48
hours from ordering, our handsome, 6ft, black, fibre optic tree
(plus free lights) arrived, in plenty of time to be set up this
weekend. Not only was it superbly packed, but extremely easy to
erect. Somewhat sad that it has to go back in the box until the
weekend.
So I just wanted to say, on behalf of the Company, a big thank for
solving our Christmas tree dilemma, for an excellent product and
equally excellent service - I will email a photograph to you once we
have put it up and had the grand switching on ceremony!
Kind regards and best wishes for the festive season.
HEATHER KNOX From: Phil Lawler Dear Ms Jones Many thanks for your message. How good to find a
local trader who actually replies to emails. I was beginning to think there
was nobody out there........... I understand about the server going down. I will
order again via your website. Thanks once more. Phil Lawler From: Debbie Richards Dear Sirs, Re: Order I just wanted to say how happy I am with the
Barbados Tea for Two Patio set I ordered. I am also delighted that it
arrived so quickly and I was able to put it together without any trouble. Kind regards, Deborah Richards

They are beautiful plants, we are delighted with them. They are in
wonderful condition.
Many thanks,
B.Devonald. Hi, in this
age when service does not even enter some traders vocabulary, I am delighted
to find such company as your goodselves. The water feature arrived this morning, two days after ordering, and is
now up an running. Thanks once again. Trevor Kyte From: Gary and bev Dear Shrubs Just want to thankyou for a very efficient service,
ordered on the 22nd May and received on the 24th May! Very pleased with the
product, pricing etc. Also please that wasn't ripped off when it came to
the cost of the postage, some companies seem to take pride in the excessive
cost of the postage! Again Many thanks Gary and Beverly Sargeant
From:

Dear Sandra
The replacement tree arrived this morning
less than 48 hours after Joe told me it would be replaced. This is an
excellent service and I would like to convey my thanks to you all (
including Joe ! ) for a very swift and efficient service. It's really
nice to talk to someone on the telephone,instead of call centres,
I am sorry if I appeared to be a 'pain'
and the new tree is absolutely marvellous,so it was worth the effort !
Assuring you of my continued support
