Hello everyone!

Now it is soon time for departure to Prague and I'm wondering if anyone wants to share a taxi from the airport?!

I have just been in contact with the taxi agency and they say they have 7 cars with participants for the conference but they can not offer me space. Those who have booked a car and have free space must invite me :)

I arrive on Wednesday 10th May at 12:30, but I would like to wait if someone arrives a little later.

Best regards,

Marit 8)

Fermi and Will have arrived - and sent this pic yesterday of rhododendrons at the  Frankfurt Palmengarten....


Arie and Lee Van Spronsen have arrived too, and met up with some  other nice SRGC folks - they've already started eating, as you can see!

Fermi - Keep in mind it's spargel season in Germany, a kilo for two people is just about right.  The Scots have likely pre-ordered ALL the desserts.....

BTW All the unsprouted Cercis griffithii seeds are sprouting now, hopefully yours will follow suit in the spring.
