On the ball Granny J  ;D

Digeroo has been in touch and is unable to join in for the moment, but will be back in the hat as soon as I have the ok.

Sooooooooooo another draw, easy part. Another clue, hard part. I may be a little while!  ;D

A clue to the identity of the next person drawn;

You will find this person in a location with some well known books and nearby was the home of an innovative gardener.

Pansy Potter?
Well knows books?  Beatrix Potter?
Who lived in Cumbria, but I can't think of an innovative Cumbrian gardener.
