Time for another meet Kay??????? *How is Jane Ranson these days, will
she ever come back to urg do you think?

Not many of the northern urgler old-timers still around. Jane is fine,
but very busy.

That's a shame, do you still see Cormaic? *I have spoken to him in
years, I hope he is well, I looked on his webpages and I see he has a
pic of me there!!! *Lovely memories of my time in Leeds with you.

Occasionally, but he's pretty busy nowadays!

Hi folks.

Don't know whether you remember me, but I was one of the 'lurkers'
when Jane Ransom & Cormaic in the north used to regularly post a few
years ago. Only wished I 'd met up with you all at that time on your
days out.

I thought about you all only yesterday, when I went to an NGS open day
at Hesketh Bank near Southport (Hawthorne's Clematis nursery.)

Would've liked to have met up with other keen plantspeople. Had a
great time anyway, and got some good advice from the owner on what to
buy. (Needless to say I bought a lot !)

Getting back to the snail - I too have some on pebbledashed walls -
thought they didn't like uneven surfaces ??

Kind regards.

Richard if you lurked, then we don't know you!! *I was here in the
time of Cormaic and Jane and do I miss them!!!! *I am so glad you have
posted. *If you want to know about clematis, then Charlie is your
man. *Welcome and keep on posting.

Judith (very hot and bothered as it is sooooooooooo hot here, how on
earth can one sleep tonight?)

Thanks for your comments, Judith.

I did post occasionally back then, but I really used to read & enjoy
all the gardening 'gossip' that went on - it was like getting a top
gardening magazine delivered daily online - couldn't wait to read.

I remember Cormaic as an intelligent plantsman with our dry northern
humour, and Judith lived through the Trough near Lancaster (I'm in
Clitheroe.)

You've got me thinking about what I could post, so started a new
thread (that's probably been commented on many times before.....) re
Carol Klein.

Best wishes, and don't hog all that beautiful sun to yourself, send
some up here !!
