Beauty and the Beast.

Looks like it's time to buy bulbs to plant for spring flowering.

There they lie, such beauty, hundreds of them, each variety neatly displayed, their labels showing what they'll look like 'in situ', whilst in the next aisle Christmas decorations cry out for the chance to adorn your living room.


At the front of the shop, displays of grotesque masks, witches hats, broomsticks and other parafinalia are on display, the gaps showing which items are most popular selling just now.

When Halloween, Trick or Treat and Guy Fawkes Night are just a memory the bulbs planted will produce exquisite beauty which will last longer than just a night.
