How did I know you lot might have started????
You can tell how excited I am - I've got to be at Bridge Club in 30 minutes and I'm here instead.
Anyway - I turned up early at the NEC and was hanging around when I heard a gentleman saying that the JM person was going to formally open the show at entrance 19, so I made haste to the said venue, armed with my copy of KG.
The Express and Star reporters soon arrived and asked me where I had travelled from and so on. On my bestest behaviour I answered their questions and then told them that I was hoping to give James a copy of KG as he was now such a keen gardener.
So, the lovely man himself arrived and there I stand beaming in an uncontrollable fashion at him. He was photographed cutting the ribbon, then the journalist told him about me and I stepped foreward and told him about the magazine and you lot, gave him his copy, which he took and had a look at. Then he put his arm around me and the journalist took our photo.
I may never recover.
I'll get in touch with the paper tomorrow and see if I can get a copy of the picture(s).
I was just expecting to leave the magazine with one of his minders when I went to see him in the kitchen theatre, so this was a big bonus.
Oh happy days.
