    :yess: Well done Diarmuid, Gold at last at Chelsea and well deserved. Love or hate his designs, he's an innovator and his planting is inspired.

    This is the best Chelsea garden he's done, without a doubt.

    Just as well he won gold considering the colossal sums of cash invested in the garden, not to mention Diarmuid's penchant for sulking when he doesnt win gold.

    Congratulations indeed to Dairmuid{sp} for his first Gold Medal eventually after a few years of trying,but it was such a shame that he was nowhere to be seen when the medals were brought round.:loll:I expect he was still in bed after the hectic work that he has had to do over the last three weeks:heehee:

    Not too sure if I would want one of those pink sky garden thingys he has as part of his display as we would have difficulty getting the crane down the side of our house when they delivered it :D
