Lovely, Robin.
Switzerland boasts one of the best Magnolia nurseries there is (Eisenhut), so if you get the urge.........

Have had a great week in the garden weeding, weeding, weeding :) its funny what makes some people happy. Yesterday was at the Perth show, great show, great company and bought plenty of plants to replace all my dead ones. Thanks to all the nurseries for coming with all these lovely plants :-*.
Thanks to everyone that made it a great show and a great day out for me and my buddies.

Hello,
so I am home from over the ocean - it was a sort time to see everything I wanted.  I visited Havre de Grace a fairy small town at the Susquhanna river, the Botanical Garden in Pittsburg, New York-Manhattan, went to see the Fantom of the opera on Broadway - I had a chance to visit the Cochran house in Dowson town, Pennsylvania
you can see my journey here /bur Washington DC and New York still missing/

So happy to be home after a l-o-n-g journey from South Turkey where we have been stranded for the last week.  I hope everyone else on our trip is now safely home or finally on their way.

The trip was fantastic, it was especially nice to meet fellow forumists  ;)  ;)
Pictures of the trip to follow later when I have my life back in control but just a couple of tasters
