    I should be able to come too, it sounds like fun! I'll also bring my (usually) well behaved dog if that's ok. If she causes any trouble I can always bung her in the car but she's normally very good. :doggieshmooze:
    Are well behaved parents welcome? I might ask mum if she'd like to come, partly because she'd enjoy it but mostly because I'm skint and she'll probably buy me some plants :snork:

      Hi Lindsay, both your dog and your mum are welcome. As you say, you can always bung her in the car - I suppose the same goes for your mum :heehee:

      You're about 35 minutes from us. :blue thumb: I'll PM you the details.

        I'll try and make it too Shiney, if the missus lets me!

        If I have any surplus plants, should I bring those along for your plant sales?

            You'd be most welcome. We're only up the road from you as well. What part of North London are you in?

            All plants are gratefully accepted. :blue thumb:

                I don't know if I will attend this time but -should I not- you are still top of the list for another time! It was a very relaxing and pleasant day last time, not to mention the little selection of plants that I have bought that are still alive today which in my hands it is quite an event! Recommended to all!:spinning:

                  I'm in Muswell Hill, along the North Circ eastbound, M11 north, then I'm lost! I do know Herts though, born and bred there :dbgrtmb:

                    I (used to) know Muswell Hill quite well as my school playing fields were there (Highgate Wood) :blue thumb: - but that was way back in the last century :old: when the steam trains still ran from Finsbury Park through Highgate Station. :)

                    We're not far from the M11, 15 minutes from Junction 7, very near Sawbridgeworth - about 35 minutes from you. Let me know if you can make it and I'll give you detailed info for terra incognita :heehee:

                        "Let's" you? :scratch: :heehee: Aww, Vince ... bless your heart (clearly still a 'learner' :heehee:)

                        You don't ask 'permission' :nonofinger:
                        You tell her you are going to take her out on a wonderful 'mystery' tour for the day.
                        You turn up at Shiney's and tell her she can choose her top, most favourite, plants for the garden and that you will select one, purchase it, and .. be a slave to it/them in nurturing to full beauty because you adore her so much! (The 'adoration' bit must be genuine or you'll simply look like a creeping, manipulative, silly fool ;))
                        Job done! :paladin:

                        PS: You guys really do need to learn how to speak "woman"! :old:
