    It was good to be able to do something to help; although individual contributions might have been relatively small, when we all team up together we can move mountains .... of plants image

    I do hope that life is getting back to something like normality for the gardeners of the Somerset Levels.

    Well done ladies - and the haulage men and all the helpers. Glad to see you getting the recognition you deserve image

    Are we recommending art for a mention in this year's  Honours list?...image

    - after all, the public's always banging on about how 'ordinary' people should be getting honours instead of all those jumped-up, publicity seeking celebs.....image

    It was an impressive and well organised operation. image Honours would be appropriate
