Anyone for Tatton

Is anyone going this week I will be there on thursday with my gang just hope the weather is as good as they are predicting.

 

Used to live round the corner from Tatton Park. Used to take the wife and daughter to the RHS show every year. Drop them off and pick them up. I didn't use the main gate though. I knew the farmer down the road so I used to drive in through his place. Also used to know most of the people that work there all year....so it wasn't a problem. heh,heh.:thumb:

 

Can you ride tandem Bob.:D

 

Id love to go to Tatton, never been. Im back at work on thursday.:( 02

 

It's on BBC2 thursday and friday night..............Will look forward to that.

 

It's overpriced, creates horrendous traffic jams around Knutsford and would be better situated at Oulton Park....disgruntled ex resident of Bucklow Hill.:D

 

You tight sod Tweaky it's once a year well organised no hold ups going in or comming out (not for me know all the small lanes) a really great day:thumb:

 

Gotta admit Walnut, was much better organized after the first time fiasco, heh,heh.

 

I'm going with SWMBO tomorrow.

 

Hope the weather holds out for you hm although there's plenty of covers on the floor so mud shouldn't be a problem this year.

That's spectacular, walnut. That first photograph of the Disa orchids is a real picture and I love the blend of colours. And the Lily kushi maya is wonderful.

The copper and glass water cascades are unique.

Thank you so much for my Bonsai ... they are to die for. xx

Thank you for sharing your pictures with those of us who are that LITTLE BIT too far away to attend. :thumb:

 

There were no problems with mud - it was absolutely scorching! Not a bad day out, I thought.
