Title: Great Day
Post by: Dan 2 on April 29, 2006, 20:06:41
Hi peeps! Hope you're all well, haven't been on here for a while as I've been away visiting family in Yorkshire, staying with friends in Kent and been overall quite busy. I've had a great day today Gardening wise as I went to Sarah Ravens garden. I've been once before and enjoyed it so i thought I would go back again and today was that day! There was a food fair at the garden as well selling organic/locally sourced/ good quality and overall, fairly reasonable food. The garden was fairly busy with many people buying the cheap plants being sold- Toms, veg and herbs- £1.00. I bought some and I also bought quite a large pot of sweet peas for £3.50 which was a bargain which I'm immensely pleased with. I chatted to Sarah for a while and got my book signed! I would recommend it to anyone to go on this Monday (closed on Sunday). Signing out, R2D2

Welcome back, thought we hadn't seen you for a bit. How brilliant to visit Sarah Raven's place.!   You are lucky Dan it sounds like a fantastic day out?  I would love to see her place.  Too far away unfortunately.  :( busy_lizzie

Hey Dan !

Sounds like a good day out. Would fancy that myself but too far away for me aswell. I'm just up the road from Busy Lizzie.

I would have been straight into the plants for a pound!
