What a great day out!!


Apart from the coffee at Arley...but the tea and scone was lovely.

It was GREAT to meet up with you, and Bernie, and Stephen and his missus, and Geoff who we thought had got lost in the car park....

We bought some plants at the plant fair and nursery - both alliums...I'm going to have to get my allium obsession looked at I think.

And glad to spread the heritage seeds wider, with seedlings and bean seeds from myself and Piglet Willie shared out; with lovely garlic and chili oil and elderflower cordial in return. Excellent exchange!!!

Must do it again sometime, in the summer!!
