I presume this is still on next Saturday (30th Sept) as there has been no mention of it on here. Unusual absence.

Judging by these photos  from the show - shown on facebook -  it looks like  there were no shortage of members managing to contact Martin R. with their entries for the show - it looks to have been a lovely display.
 Just look at the superb  Farrer Medal winning plant - a Cyclamen maritimum, shown by   Ian Robertson -  no stranger to top awards, that chap!

Peter Taggart,  recently  moved back to Scotland, was a visitor to the show too..... the next photos are from Peter

It wasn't only a nice show at Loughborough - it was  pleasant outdoors too - here's Rob Potterton's  pic of Ben and Paddy Parmee  having lunch....

September show and still weather good enough for an outdoor picnic - no wonder they're smiling!

Rob Potterton reported that there were plenty early customers for the plant stalls...

Rob spots Lawrence Peet at the stall of  Tim Lever of Aberconwy- "the competition" !!  ;D
