By NEILMUIR1
September 11, 2012

The Floral Marquee at Hampton Court is vast and very crowded. There are plants on display that have already been judged for medals, as well as plants for sale from the nurseries. The whole showground set in such an astonishing place is a spectacle not to be missed by anyone.

Dear Cherie, well 6000+ words and nearly 300 photos later I was glad it was finished. At last a bit of sleep and no late nights working on it.
What did Ed think about your Garden Room?
Group hug

I would gladly tear up a certain garden area for that. Right in the back. I would be so psyched about it.

Actually that would be a given. We'd never have to leave the house to go to a pub. lol actually you'd be surprised to know i have NOT had but one (1) glass of wine in about two (2) weeks now. I am totally serious about losing all this weight. I have 60 lbs at the least to say good bye to. I will NOT have another drink until that goal is met.

Wine is not fattening, beer and pizzas are!

You sound like H.R.H Nancy!
Exercise and not sat on a bar stool is what is needed here. A good 10 mile run before breakfast, does the trick!
Or a long walk around Hampton Court!
Hugs.

RUN? ME? I haven't been able to run without falling on face and hurting something for 24 and half years now.. That two week sleep I was in after the car accident took away my balance for running. Drs. told me to hope I'm never in a burning building and have to run.
