Hi Adam, nice photo’s, nice angles, ;) wouldn’t it be nice if we could grow stuff like that outdoors here in the UK? What with global warming it is becoming increasingly more possible, some peeps in the UK have been pushing the boundaries and trying all sorts of tender exotic plants and palms, take a look at these on a site I used to frequent, most of these gardens are in the UK… http://www.pbase.com/theukoasis

Incidentally, do you have a shot of the Eden pond? I was just wondering how things have matured in the past 4 years?

Ace photos. I see where Roy gets his ideas from!

digger - give my love to Northcott Mouth & Poughill. And that's the only golf course where I have holed in one - where it goes over the road!
