... a quick walk round the benches. Cyril's winning small 6 pan has already been posted but John Di Paola and Tommy Anderson also had nice entries. Tommy's winning big 6 pan has also been shown so here is the rest of the class. Then the  other end of the bench with grey and Australasian plants

a few closer views of plants but I think others will eventually contribute more of these.

Magnificent images from a superb show, Stan … many thanks for taking so much time and trouble to post them all … and it was great to meet you again.  I'm not trying to muscle in with some images of my own, but unless I post them now, then other distractions will take over my day (football, meals, gardening, a walk in the sun, G&T's, etc, etc.).  I am not as organised as you, Stan … I just snap and move on.  Some images MAY have the name of the plant and/or the exhibitor … most won't.
Being in Scotland, the distractions to photography were even more pronounced than they usually are south of the border - the renewing of old and valued friendships must be taken very seriously and introductions to newly met forum members came thick and fast around those heavily laden benches … and, of course, the cakes were fabulous.  Many thanks once again to you all for making the day so memorable and for presenting a Cert' of Merit to my wee lewisia … it can't stop talking about it!  LOL.
