I was at BL's for a good few hours and the garden was looking absolutely glorious and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. Took some pics will try & get them on later, really, really lovely day. Well done Lizzie and was great to meet Mattie too who has been very supportive I know.

Thank you everyone. 56 people came, mostly English and a few French. Weather was OK, sun came out this afternoon, 20°, didn't rain. Plants were bought, not all, and lots of cake was eaten. Good to see you Dordogne Damsel and thank you for the cakes. I must give you your box back. Matty was great. The 56 don't include Matty and the helpers or my daughter and family (they were staying and helping), but my son came with wife and 2 friends and they all paid.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

Well done, Lizzie. Lovely pics.
BL that sounds fantastic - so glad the weather held for you - the garden looks really lovely.
We had a French day here in honour of your garden - Pernod, lemon and tarragon chicken with braised lettuce and peas.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
So glad your day went well
Well done BL!
We all know how hard you've worked and deserve your success
You can relax now and enjoy your garden stress free
I'm sure you had a nice day, how rewarding to share with others your garden. Loved your veg patch
So glad day went well for you Lizzie and weather was good to you too.
Garden looks fantastic, beautiful flowers. Like flowers in 4th pic too.
Wish we could have jumped in the tardis and been there with you.
Hope you're feeling much better, best wishes and hugs x
Thank you.
Plant 4 is Gaillardia Cornetto Blaze from a French plug plant company. I think they have it in the USA.
Clematis is "Multi blue".
