Title: The Rock Garden journal #145
Post by: Maggi Young on July 27, 2020, 04:35:21 PM: The latest issue of the twice yearly SRGC journal, The Rock Garden- July 2020 #145 is being sent out now, with a copy of the Dryas booklet of SRGC news, to postal members. These are online for those members with electronic subscriptions.

The preparation for this issue has been particularly difficult for Editor Anton Edwards, with the coronavirus lockdown in place- however, he, and Wyke the printer have done and excellent job in getting the Rock Garden ready for members. Even with a delay while eco-friendly wrapping for the journal was awaited, the posting out to members has begun in July.

In the journal, Anton mentions his appreciation to Glassford Sprunt for all his efforts in indexing the journal over a great many years - Anton has brought the index up to date now, and this is added to Glassford's index.

Our AGS journal arrived a bit after others we heard of, but not the last! We got our NARGS journal on Saturday. Timings for overseas post in particular are a tad uncertain!!

There are some great nurseries to give your business to, for sure!

Mention the SRGC when you order!

Very true - SRGC has made researches into the load capability of long distance ducks, but results are inconclusive :-X
