No, but I'm about 15 minutes' walk further on, right behind the Botanics, if you want to get in touch.

Got the pm thanks... lets hope the promised snow holds off...
Is that bit one way (towards Harbourne) or round the corner and downhill?

Having had a plot on Roberts site I would meet him on the Botanical Gardens car park as it is so easy to sail past the very narrow entrance off a busy main Rd.That is if you are in a car .

You are in for a treat. :)

Sticking my nose in LOL

I didn't pick up that you'd had a lottie there, Betula...the Guinea Gardens? What history there!

Do hope that the meeting happened and went well.

Botanical Gardens?

Used to walk there on my own from Broad Street.

That's where a b****y monkey bit the end of my finger off instead of the banana I was offering!!
