NZAGS WINS GOLD AT THE “CHELSEA OF THE SOUTH”

[TC]

Just so you 'upsidedowners' get it into context our Chelsea is probably the most over rated garden show in the world. Full of overpaid and underskilled television gardeners;because it's part of the London social calander it's also full of personalities! of the world of stage and television; it's also got more than it's fair share of garden designers-a breed of individuals who really get up my nose; it's in London, the filthiest and most expensive slum in the world.

All of these reasons should ensure you avoid it like the plague!

I thought that I was the only person who thought this.  Is it an "age thing"?  To me London is a foreign city and nothing to do with the UK.

[David Nicholson]

Tom, others would say it's an age thing, but we recognise a bad deal when we see one I had to spend a lot of time in London in my working life and once I retired I vowed never to return. The nearest I've been since is Wisley and that's the way it will stay. My son lives and works in London and regards it as 'the pits'.

[Lesley Cox]

I ADORE London - the parks, the music, the galleries, the theatres, the restaurants and pubs. But then I would say that wouldn't I? I've spent less that 10 days there in 66 years.

[Michael J Campbell]

David,I must be one of the very few people in these parts that have never been in London.

[Greenmanplants]

London exists and works on many levels.  It is what you make of it.
