What is Love?
It’s knowing & needing, accepting, conceding
It’s pleasing & squeezing, laughing & teasing
It’s wanting & wishing, wooing & kissing
It’s depending, heart-rending, loyal defending
It’s wining & dining, shaping, defining
It’s guessing, confessing, holding, undressing
It’s tempting, confusing, alluring, amusing
It’s learning & growing, envying, glowing
It’s dating & dancing, taking a chancing
It’s flirting & fighting, giving, inviting
It’s planning & dreaming, propping & leaning
It’s vowing & hoping, cuddling, coping
It’s taking & trusting, looking & lusting
It’s planning & bonding, asking, responding
It’s tender supporting, raucous cavorting
It’s daring & caring, wondering, sharing
It’s exciting, delighting, staying the nighting
It’s praising & lazing, forgiving & blazing
It’s protecting, adoring, relaxing & snoring
It’s secret confiding & shoulder providing
That’s the meaning of Love.

'I bought 2 of these battery operated candles with a timer recently to put inside a glass lantern. They look so realistic that they fooled my daughter. Handy having a remote control to switch them on and off and so extending the battery life.
So pleased that I bought two more! Not cheap of course but they are worth it for peace of mind as my daughter had left a real burning candle over a weekend which had melted all over the windowsill down to the floor. Very fortunate that we did not have a fire'.

This large greeting card has been designed by contemporary artist, James Bartholomew.
It is blank inside and measures 158mm x 158mm. It has been printed in the UK and is FSC certified.
Each card is cello wrapped with a white envelope.
James Bartholomew works from his Mill House studio in Lancashire. His love of the sea has taken him around the British coast.
James' style is always vibrant, animated and energetic. His collectable animal portraits have received several notable awards.
James took a BA at Leicester Polytechnic in 1992 and has sinced exhibited his works, that have taken him all over the world, at several popular shows. He is a member of the Royal Society of Marine Artists and The Manchester Acadamy of Fine art.
James describes the way he paints as 'energetic, with getural, spontaneous marks and sweeping strokes'. The changing mood of his subjects always compliment his painting style.
His love for the sea is the main draw of inspiration for James and is a reason for his repeated visits to the coasts of Cornwall and the Scottish Outer Islands. His animal paintings have in particular become increasingly collectable.
Working on a large scale allows for a 'loose approach'. He works in pastel and watercolours but these often become mixed up. James likes paintings to be cheerful and he chooses subjects that he finds interesting and uplifting in one way or another.
