    Just back from Cheshire visiting my parents for a week; not too far away from the humble abode of 'Sir' Armandii. I'd taken a liking to a couple of plants in Armandii's pictures earlier this year and he'd kindly said I could have some when they'd gone over. The convenient time arrived and co-insided with my visit to Cheshire so he kindly said he could drop them at my parents house. Unfortunately I missed him (sorry :doh: ), but he did meet my wife and youngest son. So I would just like to say thankyou :ThankYou: Armandii for the plants, they will be well looked after :blue thumb: Things like this just prove what a true gardening community spirit we have here :dbgrtmb:

        That sounds like Armandii.
        He even installed a phone for the birds! (apologies for those who are confused - it's an in-joke [I think!])
