Just thought I'd add a post about why we haven't done very much since the last post. It's been a few hectic weeks until last weekend, which was the first chance we had in some time to actualy get down to our garden.
The reason why we've been so busy is our preperation for the Gateshead flower show. It's something we do every year, initially just so we could get cheap entry to the show to buy cheap plants and so on, then the competitive spirit took over. Took well over and we became flower show competitors proper, getting all anxious to see if we'd won anything and everything. Problem was we won something that first year and thats what got us hooked.
This year we both entered phgotgraphs, metalwork, paintings oil for Sean and watercolour for Jane. sean entered beer, Jam and believe it or not a sweetpea arrangement.
