Monty Don has had a minor stroke, according to the beeb. That's why he
hasn't been on GW for a while.

I wish him a speedy recovery, and hope his family get some feeling of
support from the huge number of fans.

Damn and double damn, he was the best thing that happened to GW since we
lost Geoff.

I certainly hope he has a full and complete recovery.

So true, I will miss him - both for the informative gardening advice
and (what with me being the desperately shallow gurl that I am) for
the eye candy. Ahem.

I wish him and his family well, and hope he makes a prompt and full
recovery.
