worth going there and its history is very interesting.

Contact me by e-mail if you like and I'll send you a CD of photos I took

Dewstow Gardens
Thanks for pointing this place out, Dave - it looks amazing. I was going on a tour of French gardens in September but may well go to Wales instead now. Other than Dewston and Portmerion, can anyone suggest other "must - see " Welsh gardens ? Thanks.

Not an owner Mike! I've read and enjoyed some of your contributions, but
you post too much rubbish and irrelevant stuff it's wasting everyone's time.

Try uk.rec.garbage they might appreciate your tripe.

I suppose you are of course entitled to your opinion, which of course is
wrong, but never mind.

Do mind what you say on this newsgroup, I have more followers than you would
think. "Owners" of an open newsgroup such as this are not appreciated. Now
if you wish to start your own newsgroup/forum whereby "The Chosen Few" have
to register to tug their forelock to you, well then, they will bow and
scrape to your every word. BUT, don't expect a true and accurate newsgroup
will you? Or do you want a sweet sickly kissy kissy newsgroup/forum? I'll
tell you now, they are NOT respected.

Mike

That's typical of your attitude, Mitty. "Everyone is wrong except me".
Well I have news for you. You are wrong and you are not wanted here.
You are a suppurating boil on the backside of this NG and it is time
you were lanced. Go away and infect somewhere else.

and AGAIN I ask, why the reference to Walter Mitty?

Put up or shut up.

No I am not expecting a response, just more stupid tirades from you later.
And I will be right again won't I?

Powis Castle. (Depending on how badly it's been hit by the last two hard
winters; it had a lot of tender plants on south facing terraces.)
