Rupert!!!! What an admission.

Chelsea is a heavily sponsored commercial financial event and it's designed
to appeal to the widest audience, which unfortunately means there is not
much that will appeal to you/me or the odd thousand of other gardeners.

I was listening to local radio last week on the way to the airport and
they had a Chelsea half hour. What a waste of time, all they did was
celebrity spot. I couldn't be bothered with the t.v. or the radio and
I have missed most of Chelsea this year.
