I saw the first 4 groups of the Friday evening procession pass the Bedford, then I had to dash for my bus. Arrived back here on Saturday after a gruelling all-night trip across England to get the morning flight. Our bus driver seemed to think he was racing round Silverstone and not navigating the British highways and m'ways, so not much chance of getting a bit of shut-eye.. I was knackered when I got home!

That apart, I had a great time, good to meet up with old friends and make the acquaintance of some new ones as well.

Highlights for me, just like last year, Herbaceous Border and the Anchor Garden lunchtime ceilidhs. Whoever ordered the weather shouldn't be put in charge of that task next year!!

I have photos, but I don't have the time to sort 500+ photos and post the cream of them right now, so it'll be a while.

Best wishes,

Bente
