WHEN Vera Murphy's freezer broke down, it quite simply was not a problem.

That's because her next door neighbours, Gordon and Maureen Gray, immediately offered to store all her food in theirs -- even though it was almost the middle of the night.

Mrs Murphy describes the couple as "the best neighbours in the world", and they are worthy recipients of our Bouquet of the Week award.

"They tend my garden -- plant flowers and mow the lawn -- and when my freezer broke down in the middle of the night, it was no problem, they sorted it out straight away," said Mrs Murphy.

"They really must be the best neighbours anyone could have and I want to show my appreciation by nominating them for a bouquet."

Mr and Mrs Gray, from Spinning Meadow, Bolton, were delighted with the flowers from Mrs Murphy, which arrived courtesy of Caroline Ward's flower and gift delivery service (0800-289-335).
