Anyone going to the Peterborough International Orchid Show?

[Jennyfleur]

Hi,

I just wondered if anyone on here was planning on going this year?

For those of you who don't know about it or want info, here's the website: Home

My trip has been a bit messed around this year! It started with me and my other half staying up there for a few days and making a bit of a holiday out of it, to only going up on Sunday (since friday's out due to my work and saturday's out due to his work!). But, one day is better than none

No

I was planning too, since about this time last year it's been on my list of things to do, but found I was double booked with something Hubby was planning to do the same weekend. (We each knew the other's plans just didn't realise they were the same weekend until a few weeks ago.

I believe Triffid is going, she was talking about her hubby buying tickets as a Birthday Surprise for her. See here. http://www.orchidboard.com/community...t=Peterborough.

Oh no! that's the problem with busy lives It's a bit like us, you set one plan and then gradually watch it fall apart! I didn't go last year due to the 'monsoon' like rains, so I was really determined this year! (and part of me is still waiting for something daft to come up on the sunday so we can't make it!)

I'm determined to go next year... I get priority if there is a double booking next year

[Triffid]

Whoot! Not long now. (Have replied in my thread too but what the hey )

Most likely Sunday for me. Mainly because I'll more than likely be panicking over the health of my new Green Babies! Ordered two, trying desperately not to order any more! Well you never know what you may see whilst there. The anticipation is killing me

Shame that you can't go this year Rosie But still first choice next year may not be so bad. You can make an extra long Wish-List

[Jennyfleur]

I've tried to be good and haven't pre-ordered ... but I have scoured all the vendor sites

I hope the weather cheers up for your camping Triffid and I hope you win out next year Rosie

Have you seen how much the Wubben site has!
Got stuck looking through theirs lists saying to myself
"Do they have this one!?.... Oh yes they do!"
Too Many!... Must not look any more!

Mind you I have looked through most and well
One week to go!
