There is nothing quite so curiously or deliciously strange as the British flower show dear Hazel, and here you have captured the epitome - a Gold Medal Winner at Chelsea too - a most prized award :))

How did you manage to get this close? Usually I have heads in my photos of flower shows :)))

Greetings, Amelia

Hullo Amelia and Rock --

Thanks for popping in to check out the Veggies!!

As for managing to get so close, Amelia - I attended "Elbowing Classes" - honing my elbowing skills at various Malls' End-of-Summer-Season Sales before leaving South Africa for the UK, you see. Earned my Diploma (known as A.D.E.P.T : A Diploma in Elbowing - Pushing - Trouncing) - heh heh.

Yes, Rock - I think they must have worked until the wee hours on setting up this masterpiece!

Warm wishes, Hazel

Hahahahahaha.....splendid, I mean the A.D.E.P.T Diploma Hazel, so after all that exercising a horny skin? I advice Amelia to use her charmes, dat moet haar lukken, denk je niet? :-)

Groetjes van Frank.

Thank you all so much for visiting and for your great comments!! Sorry I've taken so long to reply = life has just been so busy lately that I haven't had much time to look at Pano!!

I am so pleased that you like the Vegetables and Flowers from Chelsea. It was a wonderful day - and so nice to share it with all the dear Pano folk.

Warmest wishes, Hazel
