        Good luck with the garden open weekend Mr and Mrs Shiney, you really are really lovely people for organising this event!
        Sorry I cannot get off work to come this weekend ....... Thought I had it in the bag for a while, then events took over!
        Have a really good time everyone, I send you all good wishes for much sunshine and garden happiness!
        Have a cup or glass for me!

          Have a wonderful time to all who are going this weekend. Shiney, yourself and Mrs Shiney are so wonderful, doing this every year for charity. I hope you raise the roof this weekend. Looks like the weather might be on your side too.. *fingers crossed!*

          Can't wait to see the pictures. xx

                            Thanks everyone,

                            It was lovely to meet you all :blue thumb:

                            Northants Geezer, it was a nice surprise to see you and I'm pleased your friend enjoyed it. :)

                            We had something over 300 people through the door and everything went fantastically. The plant sales stall was frantically busy and we sold over 1,000 plants.

                            The weather tried to drizzle for the first hour but didn't quite make it. The forecast had been good but it gradually improved from a damp atmosphere to a bit warmer and just overcast. Apparently most of the villages around us got heavy rain! They're forecasting warmish but raining for this afternoon which will slow thing down a lot. :sad:

                            The curry went very well :)

                            Got to do it all again today :phew:
