Looks like there will be a good turnout of forumists at Loughborough on Saturday - I guess that apart from the usual suspects (and Martin without the dummy), I need to look out for a white rooster and a ginger cat. ;).
I think my role will be to carry heavy pots for Jon Evans to photograph, so feel free to come up and say hello/catch the pot as I trip over etc.

As a rather obvious attempt to gather all the attending forumists in one place for a photo, I intend to take CAKES, which will be available in the cafeteria area at 2pm.

Opens at 9 I think Chas. Everything says 12 to 4 but its just not the case. I think that is the show time after the judges, but I think the whole thing opens at 9. First year we went we missed all the good stuff to buy because we got there for 12! Now we aim to get there for 10 and everything is always in full swing.

Hi Ron and Chas,can I just confirm that the show will not be open until after judjing finishes 12 00 officially but may just be a little earlier,The sales room however is open during the morning with a dozen or more trade stalls and well worth taking a bit of time of Chas.I will se you on the members plant table.
