It was good, hopefully it'll be repeated cos Snowdrop wanted to watch it but he was out boozing
Odd that he wanted to watch it cos he isn't a gardener as such, I guess he wants to keep an eye on the new Boss

I saw it Piskie and I thought it was wonderful. As you say, even the sewer garden looked good. They certainly have done a lot of work on it and the birdsong everywhere seemed to say they have got it just right.A garden is a lovesome thing, God wot! (Thomas Edward Brown)

I liked the garden but wasn't too keen on the programme. I did think they made a swift exit from the 'first stage' of the sewage reed bed, it looked a bit 'pongy' to me!
I'm sure we could all have such a beautiful garden if we had his money & a team of gardeners to take care of it & Alan looks too much as though he's lining up ready for his knighthood!
I did like the wildflowers & the stumpery but didn't like the guide telling everyone to not use phones or cameras ('no secateurs' was a good one though!), what do they think everyone is going to do take photos of Camilla hanging out her smalls to dry & sell them to the papers?!

That's nothing Sue; the rules when we were at the START festival the other week [at Clarence House] were a tad OTT - probably ok for a proper royal visit but a bit extreme for a festival.......where anyone could have bought a ticket....
Here's HRH's Clarence House veggie patch whilst we are on the subject....

I've just watched most of it on iPlayer - there was a glitch, so it stopped
- very inspiring I have to say. Lovely programme, and the Gardens would be well worth a visit, I reckon.
