    He's relatively young to have had a stroke. Very best wishes to him for a complete and speedy recovery.
    I was feeling part of the scenery
    I walked right out of the machinery
    My heart going boom boom boom
    "Hey" he said "Grab your things
    I've come to take you home."

              That's sad.

              Although I've never been a huge fan (my heart belongs to Alan) I do hope he has a full and speedy recovery.

              Get well soon Monty!

                Good old Monty, bless him, hope he gets better soon, i can give him a place to stay if he needs it, he can advise me from a lounger in the garden.

                  Shame, I found Monty to be lovely, totally diferent to Alan, but it was good to see his relaxed style and understated enthusaism, I will miss him! Get well soon Monty, and all the best from us for a speedy recovery!

                  So, who's going to fill his shoes now then?

                    OMG - Thats shocked me.

                    I have missed him on Gardeners World - only really watched it in the last few years so can not compare him to others.

                    Hope he recovers soon and we see him very soon. Seen him a few times at the Gardeners World show and he has a lot of knowledge he just loves to share.

                    Wonder who will take over?

                        Heres hoping its not serious, I like monty, more so than Alan who I'm watching at the mo. GW is but half as good without him.

                            I'll add my wishes for a speedy recovery for Monty. Really liked watching Gardeners World with him. I'd listen to that voice reading a shopping list!!
