Irish Galanthus Gala

[mark smyth]

Yes I know this has been going round for years but ..

Would you, in the UK, Ireland or Europe, come to Ireland - north or south - for a snowdrop event? All I need to know for now is
 
you would consider coming over or you have no interest.

Lurkers this applies for  you also......

[mark smyth]

Maggi there is no excuse for you

[Maggi Young]

Mark, we don't normally use the Poll option but I've set one for this:
 sadly,  Guests/"Lurkers"  cannot access the poll button, but registered forumists can do so..

Edit later : Okay, we'll abandon the poll idea.... I thought Mark just wanted to know how many  might attend , but it seems it would be a better idea to contact him! 

[mark smyth]

Thanks. Lurkers will have to join or contact me- via www.snowdropinfo.com

Hey, I'm in a good mood    I had my garden open today for the NGS and it didn't rain or snow and we had 196 visitors and raised over £1200 for the charity 

I made soup and rolls and cake and sold lots of snowdrops and I can't think of a better way to spend a day in Feb. 

[mark smyth]

£1200 for Jo's snowdrop buying charity?

[Jo]

Haha Mark,

if that was the case I might stand a chance of bidding at the Gala auction    It actually goes to Macmillan and Marie Curie  among other 'caring' charities,  but I know you know that 

[mark smyth]

yes just playing

That is amazing - well done 

[Maggi Young]

Jo, that is a terrific amount to raise for the charities in one day .... well done to you for having a garden worth visiting so early  and the strength to provide so much food!! And congratulations to all your visitors for having the good sense to  take the time to go along.... what a great result all round!   very impressive indeed!

Well done at least somebody is doing something worthwhile from snowdrops.
