Re: Ubink open day
Suzanne and I visited this event along with Terry and Jennifer Smale. The nursery was vast and we didn't have time in the day to visit every area. We did however come back with a car full of plants. With the plants essentially priced by size some of the less common items were real bargians. The supp...

Re: Announcement of the death of Tony Johnston, Scunthorpe
Members might like to know that Tony Johnston's Copiapoa collection has moved to Sussex and will be kept together.

Re: Richard and Wendy Edginton's website

It should be back to normal tomorrow.
Thanks for the alert.

It quite obvious that the Post Office has been skimming off the top of the pile as many recently posted items (in the last couple of days) have arrived on time, so perversely if the journals had been posted a couple of weeks late we would probably all have them by now. Unfortunately these delays hav...
