Well Mark it was a mixed vase of Rhonda, Moorplace, Noreen, Ivor's Rhonda very nice poems now able to be grown to their true potential given the bigger ring. So one happy Barry . I imagine Barry has some good poems but what about the flowers? Haha, I bet he's happy with the new rule I've had the ring over my first two Rhonda and there nicely inside. |

Just seen a advert for a village show on the 22nd August on FaceBook it is the 80th year of this show and its the first time I have heard about it. May have a few out that day, they would not have to be brilliant, because they have a novice class for newcomers.  Decided to give this show a miss and try and get myself right for my local show on the 5th September. |
