Thanks for the thought Dave!

These pictures take me back to over ten years ago when I had to rig up covers and bag my blooms.

Its not till I see pictures such at these that I wish I hadn't given up but needs must I had to ............the blood pressure wouldn't cope with the suspense :'(

I had planned to go to Harrogate this year but I am waiting to go into hospital for an operation so I have put the visit on hold.

If I get done and dusted before then and I feel OK, I will still go, I think it is the best show around.

Its the show where all the societies exhibit their 'summers work' all at the one time. Each of the benches make me drool :o as I see what can be done with all manner of plants.

I've got a raised bed, thank you, Dan!!

Great photo, Davy. Reminds me of when I thought I might make a second career in smallholding, & grew spray Chrysanths for market!
