Hi

My wife Shona is interested in organising a rally at Wisley, one of the nicest gardens in the country.

Just wondered what sort of interest there would be and if anyone knew the best time to go

May / June would be a good time. Hopefully my wife should be rid of her severe depression by then.

Hi

Welcome Pat - thats the cakes sorted then Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

If we can help with the depression Rowley then it will be excellent news.

Will push on with the idea Dave. My mum has been organising coach trips there for a number of years. I will be seeing here tomorrow. I am sure she was showing me pictures of it over Christmas and it looked really good.

There is a campsite within a mile we think so we will make some calls.

Any other suggestions gratefully received

Hi Stew

Great idea of Shona's, not far for us to travel either Laughing

As to dates I would suggest going either when the bulbs are out in the Spring or leaving it until the fantastic herbacious borders are in full flower and the summer bedding is in later in the summer.

Might the C&CC be encouraged to permit a rally as a promotional event to attract new members, if it was away from peak times?
3 miles by road to RHS.

Walking distance from RHS carpark. MAY be only Scouts (if so but not rejected out of hand, and considered desirable, I might know someone who could oil the wheels). Reading between the lines I'd guess no blue chemicals. And noisy, I'd bet.

How about a group visit to the nearby Brooklands Museum:

Hi

Excellant Jenny, does that mean Shona will be looked after on the admin side Very Happy Very Happy

Fantastic Dave. Yes I like the look of the Brooklands Museum. Might be a blessing if some want to smell the flowers and their partners prefer more metallic smells Very Happy

Stew,

We lived in Cobham for some years, which is a couple of miles from Wisley. Mags & her friends used to take their babies & toddlers there regularly for the most amazing cream cakes (I was never invited Sad ). Put us on the list.

What site have you in mind?

Dougie.
