Gala pics 2010

[chasw]

Thanks for the compliment,a lot of the white disappeared at the barbers 2 days previously  

Oh and I was asked if I had arrived in a mini.......................perhaps next year

[Maggi Young]

Maybe you need a larger vehicle to carry home the 'drops, though, Chas?

[TheOnionMan]

Mark S, looks like you need an updated Avatar... the raw material is here in this excellent thread.  What you think, yay or nay?

[Brian Ellis]

So am I  right in thinking we have:
Chas, John , Alan B, Art, Mark, Martin, Emma T and Melvyn J  in the line up?  I know that David Q was also there, anyone else?

[Alan_b]

chasw, KentGardener, Alan_b, art600, mark smyth, Martin Baxendale, emma T, Melvyn Jope
to give them their 'proper' names.

Jo features in pictures 2 & 3.

Also there: David Quinton, jamouatt, michael broadhurst, steve owen and I'm pretty sure there was somebody else who I'm not remembering at the moment.

I'll sort out a new one this week

It's always interesting to see pics of forumists.
Mark, I love your jumper, it looks soft and cuddly, is it lambswool?
I love the colour.

[Toft Tops]

I was there (Lynda from Stroud) but missed the photo call!  Another time maybe.

[Maggi Young]

Aww, Lynda, what a shame... and the other year we only got a glimpse of your  back in a brown coat!

I thought you might be there... and Carole S. and GalANNthophile, , quite a few others....

[KentGardener]

I'll sort out a new avatar this week

Unless of course Mark McDonough beats you to it Mark S.     





(remember Paddy's hat I placed on your head a couple of years ago......)

[mark smyth]

Carol Smith was there

Lambs wool jumper? No way. Wool makes me itch and I come out in red blotches. It's a mix of cotton, acrylic and polyamide whatever that is.

[Anthony Darby]

Live long and prosper Mark.

[mark smyth]

Did anyone buy Lord Kitchener or the brilliant scented green tipped elwesii? The first from the new person and the elwesii from Simon 'Mr Spoons' Savage?

Way too many over priced snowdrops there arounf £50. All EA Bowles sold at £150 each.

[chasw]

And there was I contemplating the purchase of a David Baker,wandering around the gardens discussing it with the wife as I had said nothing over £30,and thought when will I see another,s*d it lets get one,went back to the sales tunnel,lo and behold they had all gone

That will teach me  

[Paddy Tobin]

Chas,

He who hesitates has lost the snowdrop.
