Romance defies recession as Interflora sales bloom

According to ScanSafe, web traffic to popular online flower store Interflora this Valentine's Day was 300% higher than last year. Downtime thinks people would be better off spending their money on cereal crops and setting aside a bit of land. Mind you, somebody has to get their hands dirty and do the hard labour, so a bunch of flowers could be just enough to soften the blow.
