Oh jolly good, I see Offspringette's stopped by, I'm just back from the Port Eliot Flower Show prize-giving and great excitement as the inimitable Grayson Perry was presenting books to each class winner... his frock quite a bit more interesting than mine.
I managed quick hugs with Cathy St Germans who declared our entries £$%&* brilliant and here's Cathy with international stage designer Michael Howells who designed the gorgeous flower show setting here.
First prize in the Great Novel class went to a magnificent take on Tennessee Williams The Glass Menagerie...subtitled The Grass Menagerie which also won Best in Show, very well deserved.
I've just bumped into Justine Picardie who is here to talk about her forthcoming biography of Coco Chanel which will be published in September, Justine will be back later to do a guest post and give us her take on the festival.
Next up a cup of tea before I catch gardener Mary Keen, mother of Alice Oswald, talking on Growing Alice's Flowers.
