Just to add a little about the weather in Cheshire. It is raining and has been for weeks. Friday looks the best day weather wise but if you go to Tatton take a brolly, wellies and a tow rope to get the car out of the car park!!

Went to a fair yesterday, one of my friends forgot that you should never rev hard on soft wet grass - axle deep!

Had to be towed out

He was well unhappy!

I have just heard that the show garden sponsored by Suttons Seeds and designed by Kevin and Suzanne Dunne (Classic Landscapes Of Sale) has won Silver Gilt at the Tatton show. Congratulations everyone.

All the exhibitors should be immensely proud of what they have accomplished no matter whether they won an award or not. The weather conditions here have been atrocious and it is amazing that they were able to build show gardens.
