          As a relative newbie, I do not know what your previous profession was. Care to tell Mr Shiney?

              Looks as though you've repented and spend a great deal of your time doing good works now, Mr S.
              I will try and get up to meet you next year - if this is an annual event

                Great, lolimac :dancy:

                Message to everyone that's coming:-

                Bring your cameras to take photos of the garden. I always find that someone elses viewpoint shows things that I didn't realise. :)

                  Unfortunately we are in exam purdah until the end of the month. Good luck with everything, Shiney - it seems as though the weather might be kind this year. Have a great time, those of you who are going!

                    Thanks Clare :dbgrtmb:

                    Just finished putting up an open-sided marquee to keep the sun off :dancy:. I may feel like the dancing man but I'm too shattered to even get one leg off the ground :heehee: - but things are going very well.

                    We've got about 25 volunteers helping over the weekend and we couldn't do it without them :love30:. That's on top of the volunteers beforehand that come and do the humping of tables, putting up the marquee, getting 1,000 books out of the loft etc

                      Slight change of plan, will be up for the day but looks like i'll have to come back. Willow doesn't want to come with me & I don't want to leave her on her own for too long.
