I also claimed the best exhibit in the veg classes for these long carrots....despite a little carrot fly damage.

Hathern 2009
I won 7 red cards today at Hathern (tut...2 short of my prediction!). I'm not quite sure how I managed it but I also picked up 6 trophies in the process, including one entitled Hathern Master Gardener which I won for the first time at my 13th attempt! It calls for a dish of veg (I had a plate of 5 gleaming white Winston spuds) and a vase of flowers (I chose dahlia Mary's Jomanda). My thanks to the 'git from Humberside' for giving me the wrong plants in the Spring. If anything I think I prefer them to the ordinary terracotta Jomanda. Here I am celebrating with a pint of tonic water....honest!
