Whilst a lot of that's gone now, Chelsea is still perceived as being rather posh and so some people still dress like it's a society event. So on Tuesday there were quite a few women dressed in super high heels, nice frocks and large hats.<br /><br />Rob - looking at the telly coverage, I think Tuesday was a pretty quiet day compared with later on in the week.<br /><br />EG - I'll be buying the programme in future too and marking off what I've seen the next time, so I know which bits I've missed out! <br /><br />PG - it was Zoe (Garden Hopping) and Carrot & Kids' reports from last year which inspired me to go this year.<br /><br />Anna - most inspiring and who knows what it will lead to. Yes, I'll be there next year :)VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732971362066784175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-63499178683731531542009-05-25T21:26:49.577+01:002009-05-25T21:26:49.577+01:00Sounds as if you found Chelsea a thoroughly inspir...Sounds as if you found Chelsea a thoroughly inspiring experience VP and I bet that you will be there next year :)Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10794392333038962798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-90270909621500154682009-05-25T21:17:54.185+01:002009-05-25T21:17:54.185+01:00Good post - I am really seriously considering goin...Good post - I am really seriously considering going next yearHelen/patientgardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02164036792673009326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-16620693631924623562009-05-25T18:11:49.196+01:002009-05-25T18:11:49.196+01:00At least you didn't get arrested for folder interf...At least you didn't get arrested for folder interfering and miss the show!<br />I got the show programme in advance this year - and will do it again.
