Mother’s Day Treats With VQ And Bloom & Wild. Love It!!

With Mother’s Day just around the corner (26th March in the UK) I thought I would share this lovely gift idea with you.

VQ, who specialise in DAB+ radios and Bluetooth speakers have teamed up with Bloom & Wild, a UK florist, to make a special present this Mother’s Day.

You can claim your free flowers from the 13th – 26th March.

I do not expect too much for Mother’s day.

All I really want is to have my two eldest Son’s home from Uni (fit and well!!) along with my youngest two.

A perfect day, as long as I don’t have to do all the cooking.

Usually, they do like to spoil me. Starting with breakfast.

Cereal, toast and a nice cappuccino always goes down well.

Occasionally I get really lucky and they make dinner too! Not always, though!! If they are reading.

My kids know me well, so I do usually get some flowers, chocs and treats too.

I got the chance to try out a  Retro Style Mini Radio and share my thoughts. It certainly looks the part. Fabulous with a vintage twist. There are many different designs and patterns to choose from.

I picked out this Rosebee vintage flower style. It looks beautiful, going great in my kitchen.

All set up for a morning wake up call. The kids love my singing, NOT. Haha!!

I also love to have a dance around the kitchen when making dinner too.

About the retro mini radio:

The VQ Retro Mini has retro style, mini design and modern sounds with DAB+ Radio and Bluetooth connectivity, wrapped in premium leatherette in a range of designer colour choices.

Retro Mini features DAB, DAB+ and FM radio reception which means you have access to the full range of digital and analogue services across the UK and Europe.

If it’s time to enjoy your favourite tracks from your own music library simply connect any smart device via Bluetooth, or if you’d prefer use the 3.5mm aux-in connection.

Other cable connections include, a 3.5mm headphone jack and a USB charging port so you can charge up your device as you stream.

Backed by British design & engineering with a premium real wood construction to the single 5W ultra-wide premium full range speaker drivers, this sounds as good as it looks.

Use standard mains power (UK/EU Plug) or just add batteries to listen on the move with a typical battery run time of 15 hours.

Connect your smartphone, tablet, MP3 player or any other smart device via Bluetooth – alternatively use the 3.5mm aux input to connect other devices.

Set two independent alarms for whenever you need and wake up with a simple buzzer or your favourite radio station.

A range of presents or custom controls, via the radio or the app, for bass and treble because it’s your sound. Adjust to what you’re listening to, where you’re listening and when you’re listening.

As you’d expect from premium British design and engineering, this product meets the highest possible quality standards. The Digital Tick is an independent award for meeting criteria on technical functionality and radio reception.

Price: £89.99 (also include a Bloom & Wild £20 gift voucher to use between 13th – 26th March).

What I really love about the radio is that when you are getting fed up of listening to that 18-year-old DJ.

Who thinks he is a comedian, it doubles as a Bluetooth speaker. So connect any Bluetooth device to stream your music.

Spotify is my preferred choice.

I like repeating the same song over and over.

How many times have I repeated Ed Sheeran’s Castle On The Hill song this week, I wonder!? 😃

♯I’m on my way
Driving at ninety down those country lanes
Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
And I miss the way you make me feel, and it’s real
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill ♯

Also as it is a DAB radio you get plenty of extra stations, and it tells you the track which is currently playing. The Hubby says it picks up more Talk radio stations. How boring!! Not when I am in, music all the way for me!!

My Thought’s On The Mother’s Day Treats With VQ And Bloom & Wild:

I think this radio along with some free flowers would make a lovely Mother’s Day gift. The radio is gorgeous, I cannot wait to order my flowers. Watch this space, I will post a picture of my flowers once they arrive.

What do you think of my new retro mini radio?

Do you think these make a lovely Mother’s Day gift?

Do you love the design of the radio I picked?
