Ulster Group show
« on: April 03, 2009, 12:32:58 PM »
April 25th in Greenmount College
4 miles from Belfast International Airport and 20 miles from Belfast City Airport.

Ryanair has a seat sale on now ending on Tueday. All flights in to the city airport are £24 no taxes but including the scandelous £8 booking fee. If you get the first flight in I could collect a few people

Sorely tempted Mark, it would be good to see beautiful Belfast again but I refuse to fly Ryanair whatever the price. You are allowed to have extreme views when you get your pension, it's part of the package ;D

Mark, were you down at the Dublin Show today?

That's a kind offer for the Belfast Show........ I'll be staying home with Lily, but Ian's looking forward to coming across.

Dublin show was the best in a long time with some stunning plants. I'll ask Jim Almond to give me some photos to post.

I am just back from Belfast after spending a great weekend at the 70th Ulster Group Show at Greenmount College as well as seeing a few gardens.

I am posting the pictures just now and will come back and add the names as time permits.
The order is just how I took them and there is a mixture of plants and people.
