Postcard from Chelsea #1

This is a view of an area not accessible to flower show visitors and a reminder that it's hosted by the Royal Hospital Chelsea, home to the Chelsea Pensioners.

As you read this I'm on my way to Victoria's as I'm staying with her (with Patient Gardener) prior to my Chelsea visit tomorrow. Victoria will be fresh back from press day so we'll be getting all the showtime gossip prior to our visit to Rob's shop (aka The Garden Sage) tonight for drinks and nibbles :)

  2. The Preview on BBC seemed better this year - less of Alan bouncing about and more on the plants - which should be the real stars of the show. Have a great time.

  5. I don't want to go to Chelsea... Oh, wait. Yes, I do. I was just channeling Elvis Costello for no good reason. Looking forward to your report! :)

  6. RO - I did and I see you did too :)

    Hermes - they seemed to cover more design wise too. Much better on both scores :)

    Liz - thank you - the weather was perfect!

    Carrie - I think a rest from flower shows is needed for a while now. Next it's a holiday - yippee!

    Monica - the reports are in ;)

Hi, let's start a conversation - right here, right now! I love reading your comments and thoughts about my blog :)

If anyone is having problems leaving comments, you can contact me on vegplotting at gmail dot com or @malvernmeet if a quick tweet is more convenient for you. That way I can get things sorted.

Thanks xxx

My general policy re comments

I value genuine commenters for the conversation they bring. Those aiming to link back and give credence to commercial websites (thankfully rare) will be removed.

Blog posts are kept open for your Comments for as long as possible - for at least 3 months. I've reluctantly taken the decision if a post comes in for a sp@m attack after that time, I'll remove its Comments facility. I've found genuine comments are rarely left after 3 months, but dozens of sp@m comments are :( Removing these takes away the joy that a genuine comment might be left one day.
