Did you mean Alan Holmes of the organic gardening or the Alan Holmes who
has posted here recently - remember there are 2 of them, but quite,
quite,different styles of personality and gardening. I met the latter
Alan in Leeds with his wife, he was utterly charming and enjoyed my
lasagne - well, at least he said he did.

'Organic Alan' is Alan Gould, isn't he?

Ohhhhh yes, I told you that I was having a problem with my memory -
just put it down to a senior moment (again)
