Went on Sunday, which was a veg garden day, with talk and tour by gardener, thouroughly enjoyed day - very informative and fun, they try to only grow plant varieties organically, and which were readily available in Victorian times

Good pictures Prink.  Are they runner beans growing up those poles?  They look very much behind.  Mine are almost finishing now.

I love the pig.  He looks as though someone has emptied an extra large fountain pen on him.   ;D ;D

Lovely pics! I like the pig too, and I agree about the runners, mine are still producing but at least someone is behind me for a change!!
