That's good news - I know how popular this event is so it will be entered into a lot of diaries.

[chasw]

[Brian Ellis]

Look forward to seeing you Chas

Sadly it clashes with The Cyclamen Society Committee meeting - usually on a Saturday.

Hope the sun shines for you.

[Maggi Young]

Oh dear, pity about that clash of dates - terribly hard to avoid these things, I know. I know you'll be sorry to miss the bulb sale, Art - a lost chance of retail therapy, eh? 

[Brian Ellis]

Sorry you won't be there Arthur, but I am sure you will have a great time nonetheless

[mark smyth]

Wish I was there  Next year definitely

Indeed! I've made a note of that for the Auction.......

A delightful afternoon yesterday at the Alpine Garden Society Bulb Sale in Flowton Ipswich.

Some wonderful snowdrops up for auction:
Carolyn Elwes
Mother Goose
Dainty Maid (Glen Chantry newbie!) et al

In addition, a chance to meet some of the great and the good of the snowdrop world, John Morley, Rod Leeds, Margaret MacLennan, Sue Staines and her 'assistant'  and our own Alan-B!

Well worth a visit next year as part of the snowdrop calendar.

Brian and David were there also and David was taking pictures as usual - so he might be persuaded to show some.  And there were several other SRGC-forumists and/or snowdrop luminaries present.

And who forgot all about it .......................ME    ...............................

[Alan_b]

I looked for you, Chas, because months and months ago you said that you were hoping to attend.  But the venue was over an hour's drive from Cambridge so it would have been a long journey for you.   

[Maggi Young]

Oh, Chas, what a shame - you said in January you hoped to go   ..... in the other thread for this event - which I'm now combining with this one.
