It was back to Portsunlight Garden Centre here

Sunday the garden centre was busy in other areas.
On show we had a variety of Trees such as
Flowering Cherry, Korean Hornbeam, Pryacantha, Chinese Elm,
Larch, Potentilla, Escallonia, Contoneaster a few more plus a couple of Accent
Plants belonging to Our Leader for the day Andy H.assisted by Doug M and Tom
and these were the trio who brought their Bonsai Trees and Tools to work on and
await to assists any member of the Public who needed help and guidance with
their own Bonsai Tree or Trees as was the case with a Wonderful Lovely Lady
named Ann along with her Husband Steve who live in Cheshire. Ann had brought in
her Oak Tree for assistance
and Andy took centre stage and after little time
consulting with Ann, Andy got in action with both Steve and Ann looking on
seemly approving and very happy with the result. During after morning and
afternoon Doug was chatting with Steve and it was interesting to hear about
Steve's other passion a Longbow and involved with Reenactments and if your
