Re: Gardener's - diary dates - Sudha (17th Jan 2010 - 08:27:28) Thank you so much for that information. I will enter these dates in my diary so that I can attend at the very least ONE if not all of those meetings or shows. I have missed them all before due to my other commitments.

Re: Gardener's - diary dates - Sean (20th Jan 2010 - 10:07:53) Hello, Do you have any more info on the Society? I can't seem to find anything about it. Are there meetings as well or just the talks? Thanks in advance Sean

Re: Gardener's - diary dates - Katy Clarke (20th Jan 2010 - 16:11:13) Hi Sean We have a programme of events I can post you if you send your address to me via the editor. Or why not pop in tomorrow before the talk to collect one and find out a bit more. We have the talks in winter and then the three shows during the year. We also have a coach trip (Exbury Gardens 15th May this year) and a summer party in a member's garden so there's lots to do. We have over 140 members of all ages and encourage children to enter the shows too. Indeed Liphook Junior school took some prizes last year so it really is a community event. Hope to see you tomorrow and thanks for your interest. Kind regards Katy

Re: Gardener's - diary dates - Katy (13th Feb 2010 - 17:00:43) Hi Everyone Just to remind you this month's meeting is on Thursday 18th Feb at the Church Centre (see below for details). Talk is a slide show on "A Surrey Safari" Apparently the photographs are excellent so hope to see you all there! Regards Katy
