Your lad will love it i'm sure, and when you get home, your house will be a much more happy and colourful place

Hey guys, although I find it quite touching you wish to engage in activities with your children, may I take this opportunity to point out that it may well be illegal to pick wild daffodills. Not only this but you may well be spoiling the enjoyment of others by doing so.

May I suggest you visit the local cemetary where there will be any number of pre picked daffs at your disposal. I ve found it far better to pilfer these than disturbing the wild ones.
