Would be great to see anyone from A4A.
Both Ant and I will be there. Ask for Rachel ;D
have you got a postcode, sparkly..if Ray's mum and dad don't need us, we'll be able to come, fingers crossed ;D
With a bit more warning I could have come, on the pretext of visiting my sister in Wigan, and seen Manics Lotties as well... :(
http://www.multimap.com/maps/?qs=granville+park+urmston&countryCode=GB#map=53.45125,-2.34821|18|32&bd=useful_information&loc=GB:53.45067:-2.34919:16|M41%200XR%20|M41%200XR
The offical postcode is M41 0XR, but as you can see on the link above it is a just off (you can see the site on the map).
There are 3 gates to the site, but the best access is off westborne park
Would be great to see you again Manics ;D
Saddad arrange a last min trip!
Doubt I'd get it past OH now she's agreed to go to Betty's with me on Saturday.. :(
Hope all goes well on sunday Sparkly, will try to get there as long as hubs isn't working. ;D Is there any cost to get in? Silly question probably, but I have never been to one before :(
Banshee, entry is free :)
It's only our site show so not a huge event. Don't think we could get away with charging hehe!
If you were interesting in buying the veggies you do have to get there early as we can't get it on the table fast enough!
Thanks for that Sparkly, will do my best to get there sunday :)
sorry, sparkly, we've been summoned..maybe next time :-\

Well, the op is over at last, they have had to take half his tongue, speech therapist is seeing him today,he's still, obviously, on morphine, in lots of pain but at least he can start healing now..may be 3 days in hospital, 10 days in the house so's he doesn't breathe anything nasty..they think they got it all
Hope you have a brilliant day on Sunday Sparkly, and that the weather stays fine for you.
Have a great day Sparkly, way too north for a southern softie like me but hope it goes well and the weather is kind, Sunday supposed to be the best day I think :)
Lushy x
Good Luck for tomorrow... currently they are saying it will dry up later today.. :)
thought I'd done this ???
anyway, got a reprieve, going to the in laws tomorrow am so we could be there for 2.30..see you tomorrow, Sparkly ;D
well, the weather forecast seems ok, just thought I'd bump this up for you, see you later ;D
Hope you have a great day... :)
Well we are back home just having a buttie and putting the cookies in the oven for the cake stall. It is cloudy with sunny intervals so fingers-crossed the weather should be okay!
See you later Manics!
Just got back! The weather held out (even the odd bit of sunshine).
Was great to see Katynewbie and Manics!
We even got a few prizes ;D
I took a few pics so will upload them later...
Sorry I couldn't make it.. looking forward to the piccies... :)
Here are a few pictures I took today. I am going to do an article, which will be published when we launch our website over the next week or so. ;D

Had a great time, sparkly..it's really great being able to tour other people's plots ;D
first a couple of pics from sparkly's seat, then her flower border..they're compulsory, you know ;D
Looks lovely... were the onions second or third?
3rd :)
We got 13 prizes overall.
Thanks to Manics for the discovery apples. They are yummy! Have put the best ones in the fridge and have been freezing the rest.
glad you could make use of them, sparkly..our kitchen smells like Patak's..been doing onion relish ;D
I see that Ray was there holding up what looks like a porch. At least he didn't get his pocket full of water this time ;D
it was sparkly's gazebo with ray in his usual stance ;D
the weather stayed dry until we got nearer home
QuoteAt least he didn't get his pocket full of water this time
Meaning what exactly!!!!! :P
;D
Lovely to meet you Sparkly! Sorry to be there for such a short time and to have missed manics, 89 year old mum was about to be evicted for snaffling blackberries hanging over the fence! Great site and lovely to see so many people of different ages enjoying the day.
Well done on your prizes too!
;)
