Apparently someone from the group came into the Nursery when we were away
last week. Unfortunately, the person that took your name has now forgotten
it, so apologies to whoever we missed, sorry to miss you and hope we get
another opportunity!

"It'" was female, no dog. In any sense. ;-)

Hi Sacha,

It was me. With the help of a GPS and laptop computer, we found Carol
Klein's, Glebe Cottage fairly easily, only had to ask directions once ;-)

Then we went to Hill House, had a really good lunch, and as I spent a happy
hour or so wandering round your nursery, my husband slept on a bench in the
sun. We both enjoyed the day.

Sorry to have missed you though. I think we will have another trip to Devon
either in the autumn or next spring. We stayed B & B in a thatched
farmhouse in a place called Black Dog, and thoroughly recommend it.

Bought some lovely plants too. ;-)) so will certainly come back for more.

Best wishes,
Marina
E. Sx

You should get a medal - it's really hard to find! I think we'll invest in
a GPS if we do our possible garden trip.

I'm so glad but really sorry we missed you. We often find abandoned husbands
snoozing in the garden - it's really quite funny. One had to be woken up
at gone 6pm (we close at 5) and he had no idea where his wife had got to.
She was still mooching around quite happily, totally oblivious to 'closing
time'. ;-)

I'll look forward to meeting up with you then. ;-)

"A WOMAN CALLED MARTIN'S WIFE"!!! I hope she handbags you! ;-) That's
like people who say "this is my mother/father/son/daughter/friend" but give
no name for this person you're meeting. "Hallo Sacha's mother" wouldn't sit
too well with my ma!

One of my son's friends insisted on calling me Jonsdad so I simply call
him Nedsson. :)

(He's the one who decided to take a 3am drunken dip in our pond. :)

I'd say Nedsson was very restrained, under the circumstances! It sounds
quite, um, whatever-that-country is. ;-)

It is indeed - while Marina from Sussex was visiting Devon, we from Devon
were visiting Sussex! I don't know Black Dog at all so will now have to
look for it.

Ellgood's brewery, in (IIRC) Wisbech. Top mild.

Oh, as you were. You mean the place......
