Thankyou everyone for the kind words and encouragement.
Sorry you had rain in Edinburgh Maggi. I have no idea how much extra nights are in Stratford. Possibly more than the £9 a night we are paying on a caravan site!
Looking forward to your talk next week Diane.

 The overnight rate is tempting, Anne, but the purchase of the caravan in the first place is a bit much for the Young budget, I reckon!  ::)

 What lovely plants and photos.
Is that Erythronium from Della Kerr the one she won a medal with the other year?

I think so, unless she has two big potfuls.  She got a Farrer with it in 2007, Hexham I think it was.

At last a few shots from me from saturday.
First a view overlooking Chesterfield showing the Crooked spire.
Then a few pictures of the public viewing the show
and some of the benches.
