can negotiate on your behalf to get<br />

the very best deal for you – better<br />

still, the banks pay for this service<br />

Whether it’s your first house<br />

purchase, debt consolidation, or if<br />

you are considering refinancing, Kim<br />

emphasises that it’s “your money and<br />

your home, and you should always be in<br />

control. Knowledge is always powerful”.<br />

Mylend helps you with every<br />

you.<br />

Kim explains that with interest rates as<br />

Say it with flowers...<br />

With more than 37 years in the<br />

industry, Leanne Lovell will celebrate<br />

her second year as owner of Victoria<br />

Florist on October 1st.<br />

Leanne credits the increased success<br />

of this well-established florist to the<br />

popular addition of the Dried Flower<br />

Den.<br />

“Dried flowers are all the rage for<br />

those who love the natural look. We<br />

have bouquets available plus a large<br />

selection of loose dried flowers,<br />

perfect for those who like to create<br />

their own bunches,” says Leanne.<br />

Leanne regularly starts her day at<br />

5.30am, heading to the flower market<br />

to select the freshest, brightest, most<br />

beautiful flowers. “Because we have<br />

a high turnover daily, this ensures<br />

our customers receive the freshest<br />

flowers every time they shop with us”.<br />

The friendly, talented team are very<br />

passionate about what they do. “We<br />

love flowers, we love life, and we<br />

believe in celebrating the big, small,<br />

happy and sad times that are part of<br />

life. We put love into every bouquet,<br />

we really care.” Leanne is happiest<br />

when creating her exquisite funeral<br />

arrangements. “If my flowers can<br />

help families in grief – that means<br />

everything to me” she says.<br />

Nothing is too big or small to<br />

celebrate with flowers and Victoria<br />

Florist caters for every occasion. They<br />

offer a great selection of vases, soft<br />

toys, helium balloons, chocolates and<br />

cards to accompany your bouquet.
