Have bought 3 tickets for next Thursday, never been to the show, (but
have been to the Palace) Any advice on getting the best show
experience appreciated

Feet WILL get tired and hot and possibly stepped on by others. If
there are ladies in your group, I suggest they wear comfortable shoes
with flat heels; with more foot protection than strappy sandals. Take a
notebook, pen, and camera to record desirable plants/designs etc.If you
have a weakness for plant catalogues take plenty of loose change; most
growers charge a pound or two for catalogues on show stands. Small
foldaway sunhat/plasticmac/umbrella/suncream and water in small backpack
covers all weather possibilities. Foldup strong bag if you're likely to
buy plants.

Janet.
