Anyone else going? What are you looking forward to?

We are going and we're highly excited. Can't wait, in fact I am chomping at the bit.

You lucky lucky thing! I'm following it's progression on my iphone ap. (How sad is that) I went three years ago with a friend and had a wonderful time. The B&Q garden looks interesting with it's vertical grow boxes and the Irish Sky Garden looks amazing with a planted pod.
You'll have a great day. I'm dead jealous!

Lucky you! I wanted to go to the show but the tickets were too expensive for me at the moment
Maybe next year!
Hope you have a lovely time

Have fun! I've been, once with work, once as a paying guest. Preferred the former. Being a short @rse, I find I see more on the telly, and I don't like paying over six quid for a small plastic tumbler of P*mms!

We are back. We were actually a bit disappointed. It was hard to see into the gardens, as there were a lot of posh old people who blocked my every move. Having said that there were some lovely gardens there, the Artisan gardens especially. We thought there would be more plants for sale, as per the Cardiff show we went to last year, but it was a lot of fancy stuff not practical for gardens. All said we spent some money (mainly on lunch) and some new secatuers.

We went to RHS Wisely on Sunday and loved every minute of it (well not the 10 mins of showers). Most definitely worth a visit.

Sorry to hear that Jojo. I haven't even seen any of it on the television this time, it all seems to get a bit more highbrow every year, but I suppose that's the nature of the beast.

It was one of those things we've always wanted to do and now we have.
