Greetings,
Well, another year has been and gone - how come they go so quickly these days? I've just come back from holiday so this newsletter will have to be a real short one - there's so many things for me to do right now and it's all a bit crazy. All my plants seem to have survived my absence well and hopefully I might have some more interesting material available in the not too distant future. Feel free to bring plants to the meetings, whether you wish to sell, trade or just plain show-off. If you have a sick plant and would like some form of diagnosis as to what ails it, bring it along too.
