Disaster! Ur local Lidl has changed the depth of their flower buckets, they're now half depth. OK they're still useful but not what I'm used to. Has anyone else found this?

Pity you're not closer, Scarlet, I have loads of unwanted pots..............and quite a few spare MFBs too, JJB.

I'll walk over to yours this afternoon to collect some, put the kettle on
Seriously, though, I do have umpteen mfb's it was just the thought that if I wanted more, there might not be any.

Just by looking. All the flowers for sale were in short buckets, not tall ones. There again, it might all be back to normal next week.

I had loads of the Mfbs from days gone by but most have cracked these days. I don’t tend to use them much anymore as my greenhouses have beds.

I remember the day when you turned up with a stack of MFBs /AFBs. You're a man who knows how to make a "girl" happy.
Good to see you here again Mikey!

I’m never far away V, I just wish there were more hours in the day, and I didn’t need so many of them to sleep.
You’d be surprised how many a girl is less than impressed by the bucket rather than it’s contents V. Those that are, will always be my people.
