SHOW PROGRESS, TUESDAY 26TH AUGUST














With only a few days to go now before entries close and the show prizes can be awarded (errrrr, look into that post haste) there has been a fabulous turnout for many categories. 

I would particularly like to congratulate VP for her sterling efforts in entering nearly every category (she's not allowed in the Men Only Baking and her religion forbids her, of course, from making baklava, but apart from that...). 

Celebrity Paparazzi Snaps has been a firm favourite, which doesn't surprise me as we garden bloggers are a shallow, fame-driven lot, apart from Jane Perrone who quite pointedly will not tell who she saw at the Cerne Giant. (Maybe she is going to sell the story to Heat - "SIR X JAGGER CONSULTS ANCIENT FERTILITY SYMBOL IN QUEST FOR ANOTHER BABY". Remember, I told you first.)

Baby Animals also doing rather well. 

Those categories currently not doing so well,  I nevertheless do think deserve some love: so pull out the boat, and load it up with your Jpegs of your largest veg , your biggest sunflower, your scones and your homemade seedpackets. And most of all your Victoria Sponge!

I can send you the scones I snapped at the garden centre show on Saturday, and the Victoria sponge. Would that be acceptable?

Might be able to do something on the marrow front tomorrow...

Seed packet making's scheduled post show :(
