Society Pinks Championship Show

Dobbies Garden Centre Birtley
Just a quick update Championship was won by Brian Duffy who also won the vase of twelve. The show was well attended with over 450 blooms and stems.
As soon as I receive photos I will create a page for the show with brief report.

We did not get as many replies for this request as I had hoped, by agreeing to this it does not mean you can't have a hard copy we will still print enough for all members. You will still be able to pick one up at one of the meetings after it is issued.
cheers
