I hope there are lots of wonderful snowdrops to be had - at bargain prices!!  But most of all safe journeys there and back.

Have a great day everyone. Looking forward to hearing all about it and seeing what little treasures you battled for.

The sun shone, the birds sang, and the snowdrops on the tables vanished rapidly... the usual suspects in the queue - queue was shorter than I expected.  Maybe some people had been put off by the dire forecast? Nice to have Loes and friends from Holland round afterwards to see the collection, even though many are still emerging from winter slumbers. Thanks for the cheese Loes (note to visitors: it isn't necessary to bring a whole cheese, a side of ham will suffice).

I shouldn't really be asking what with my early season enthusiasm sated by the sales at Myddleton House, but is Joe/Monksilver sending out a sales list this year for mail order? Or is all direct sales and Ebay this year?

Pleased to get woronowii Cider with Rosie... looking forward to seeing it emerge.

I also purchased EA Bowles again (fortunately a bit 'cheaper' than the first time). I promise to take better care of it this time!!

Matt had a fantastic bench of Trumps on display.
