Did anyone else Gardeners World on Friday?
They had a special with Month Don (my hero!) about the Palace gardens. I'd
never realised they were so extensive !!
Good old Beeb - another excellent program

Sadlt, we missed it and have been told how good it was. If anyone happens
to have a tape of it that they'd lend us I'd be so grateful.

It was presented by Monty Don, why don't they find more like him?
Knowledgeable, comprehensible, and not auditioning for a personality
transplant via my right boot.

It was an interesting programme but I found the gardens themselves
rather chilling and soul-less. There was no sense of person or passion
which had brought them about; no spark.
Janet.

Dare I say that perhaps the gardens reflect the Queens personality ?
Jenny (ducking out of the way of the Royalists....)

Well that's your invitation to a Royal Garden party (scheduled for
2051) cancelled and don't expect an MBE for services to ugly Dutch
balconies either. :-)
