  4. We have a "poorly" bucket in our house... not sure it would be up to the task of holding delicate flower arrangements though.

  7. Please send poorly mug over here as soon as the flowers are out of it. I shall fill it with gin. It couldn't make me feel any worse.

  8. And which display period shall go on FOREVER. No poorly feeling allowed.

  9. Such cheerful yellow flowers coordinate perfectly with the "poorly mug" and surely no one with that much cheer in their lives would ever dare to feel "poorly" so the mug is safe to perform its alternate function with impunity !
