St James' Park is closer.  In either case you probably need a map because the RHS Halls are not easy to find without one.  No booking is required or indeed possible (so it can get quite crowded).
Almost in Scotland.

I shall be at Glen Chantry - but not the Gala itself.

I'll be at the gala, signing and selling copies of my book (special Gala price of £5 a copy) which probably means I won't have time to buy any snowdrops.

Hope you Forumists who do attend are able to find eachother for a chat and a photo.....of course, if you all had your smart Forum shirts, you'd be easier to pinpoint  ::)

Yeah, yeah, I know, you'll all have huge outdoor coats on so your shirts will be hidden.... what about hats.... like McMark has in his crazy avatars.... there'd be no missing those!

Of, those, and such as those, will be at The Main Event in Dunblane a week on Saturday. Be there, or be ........... somewhere else!
