Walking down the corniche last night, I see a guy go to the flower beds and start picking a few red flowers. He calmly picked a bunch of flowers and walked off.
hope his partner realises where he got the romantic gift from - Moron.
He worked for it. I think it means something and I appreciate the gesture. At least it's better than my hubby who has money for it,but decided not to...or maybe later...he's on probation :-)
britexpat is not being harsh. That's public property - while there are no taxes, but someone's paying for it. The moron thinks he's paying for it by working here at low rates and the govt can easily afford to put new flowers?
This is the middle of the desert. Flowers are very expensive and in short supply, even more expensive. Taking something that doesn't belong to you - that's stealing, however you want to justify it. You make do with what you can afford, live within your means. Can't afford flowers, don't give flowers. Make something cheap - eg. homemade cards, etc. It's the thought that counts.
I am surprised that most are condoning his actions. the flowers were grown by the municipality for beautification of the area, not fr some moron to use them as freebies.

well every flower is picked up from somewhere or the other...........nothing wrong in what he did.

Hmmm, now that I take another look at this bouquet from Mr. NFH.... it doesn't quite look like it came from a florist....

oh but still...
in think its sweet!!
If the recipient has any brains she will notice the absence of the shiney plastic wrap and ribbon from a florists and figure it out .
awwww...
maybe he's poor..
i think it is a sweet gesture..
I bet they were for his goat...don't goats need a little treat every now and then?
He probably can't grow flowers in his garden.
It was a treat!
You can't teach experience...
maybe its for his kids?
