Tapping the barometer...
.....but it looks like it is going to be a case of brollies and sou'westers.
Firstly, a massive thank you to all of the volunteers who contributed to our first plant sale weekend, just over a week ago.
Which brings us to this coming weekend!
Yes. The weather forecast is far from promising, but the plan is that it all happens all over again on Saturday and Sunday, May 21st and 22nd. The sales open at 9.30 am and finish at 2.30pm (unless we've been washed away!)
