The Lonely Bouquet

So there I was this, out and about for a little stroll in Chorlton Water Park with Millie this morning, when I spotted a lovely bouquet of flowers perched on a bench. I assumed they'd been left in memorial for someone and was walking on by when I noticed an interesting looking tag. I stopped to take a closer look and found this...

What a lovely idea! Once I got back home, I checked out the link and discovered it was part of International Lonely Bouquet Day - a movement dedicated to spreading happiness and smiles, one flower at a time. I feel very lucky that for once my nosiness has rewarded me with something so nice. I've been smiling all afternoon especially because Millie was with me to enjoy such a lovely surprise.

The flowers were left there by Blossom Flowers in Chorlton. They are absolutely beautiful and smell amazing. I think it's fair to say I'll be stopping by soon to say thank you and buy some more!!
