Indeed, Jean. Good luck!
We look forward to seeing the photos/videos.
P.S. I like the 'little' pachypus.

Thanks both! I will miss out annual chat Diane, but you won't miss the Purley one way system! Tony the pachypus had a good start, as you know, it's grown really well, I shall repot it soon.

Re: Croydon Branch Show, July 22nd
A very good day yesterday with 14 exhibitors and a good flow of visitors, perhaps helped by an advert in the free local magazine. Just a nuisance that it poured with rain for clearing up!
A few photos, first the Mammillaria class, showing the best cactus The Agave class, showing the best other succulent The well supported Echinocactus class More to follow.
