Oh, Mick, are you in for a treat!?! Have a great day and we'll look forward to the photos.

I'm off up to Inverness tomorrow, for a day out by train, to judge the local Inverness Group show with Mike Hopkins. Perhaps therewill be some pix from there, too... and maybe some from David Shaw later, too. This isn't a "full" SRGC show, it has been run as a purely local show for some years tho' I believe other garden groups are invited to enter. This will be my first visit, so I am eager to get there.
The  Inverness Show will be held in the Old High Church, Academy Street, Inverness on Saturday 28th April, open from 12.30 to 15.30pm.

Hope you have a superb day Mick. The weather looks good so the crowds should be huge.  Just a note of warning sir for when you take your images in the alpine marquee....the show benches bounce, the floors bounce, the pots bounce and the foliage and flowers shake like aspens in the fall. Every shot has to coincide with a lull in foot traffic...you could be there for WEEKS!  Hope to spot you in the melee....it will be like the January sales at Edinburgh Botanics!!  No doubt young Diane Clement and old Martin Rogerson will be there so please introduce yourself to us all.

Thanks Luc....I will take some shots just for you...though they may well be blurred (see above).

I'll keep an eye out for you all. It will be nice to meet people off the forum face to face.
Will try and move in time with the foot traffic and click at the suitable moment.
Wife and I are looking forward to a good day and all the best if you are showing something tomorrow.
