Sadly I not going this year. Flights are so expensive.

EasyJet had nothing under £100 since bookings opened for this time of year. One year I went for £25 return. Where have those flights gone?

I think it is usually the case that there are good bulbs at that AGS sale, huh?!

Are there by any chance some fine continental growers bringing their bulbs this year?  ::) ;)

Ironic that it's a hoppable distance from across the Channel but not from Aberdeen  :'( :'(
