Thank You Janeplant. I'm really enjoying this site and the friends I'm making here. Distance is no object. :)

Hi Jane: I'm in New York, USA. I've been to the UK a number of times and have many good friends there. Where exactly is Cambridgeshire?

Bathgate - This is a super colour for Harvest Festival! Welcome to GoY - Glad you are enjoying the site :o)

Lovely daylily,my favourite obsession/weakness lol
Welcome to GOY :-)

Thank you Petaltracey and Simbad. I'm so glad I found this site. It is so lively and dynamic and it's great to share ideas/thoughts with other gardeners. There is always more to learn and discover.

Cambridgeshire is a county in England...and they are (Cambridgeshire/England) in UK!!! if you have been to the City of London? then the county of Cambridgeshire is situated up From London(as if heading towards the very top of UK!!!! Cambridgeshire county includes towns like Huntingdon/Ely/march/Wisbech and also Cambridge...

May be some of your Friends are on GoY.....

OK I have been near you. I've been to Rochester, Holy Head, London, Liverpool, Leeds, Westminster. I do believe you are correct.

P.S. I miss your wonderful tea gardens!! We don't have them here....beer gardens yes, but no tea gardens!

its a pity you did not go to Grantchester meadows steeped in history...and i promise you the best scones EVER (in my opinion) not really a garden (flowers) Grantchester but orchards really...the place of poets....

Rochester i love!! the Tea Rooms and Gardens - Rochester Cathedral ive never visited tho....

the beer gardens sound interesting...must have quite a few different plants than we have...

Yes I remember the scones and clotted cream with raspberry sauce. They are almost worth going back for. There is a little tea shop on Greenwhich Street here in New York City called "Tea and Company". It's the only place I know where I can go for High Tea and they pull out all stops. The line to get in goes half way down the street.

that's sounds popular... i will take a look on google...

Hi Jane: Correction The name is "Tea and Sympathy" LOL sorry about that. Now you can Google it. It's on 108 Greenwich Ave New York, NY 10011. It's been around forever so that says a lot. They really know how to do high Tea. It's a restaurant with an adjoining tea shop. The only problem is getting a table without waiting a long time. If you ever come to New York, I'll be happy to treat you to High Tea.

i will hold you too that!!! i did look and found from the first name you gave ARTIST thing..which was very interesting...i look at the new information...

ive seen loads of photography work from there... the images i know some of them... love it.. very nicely done!

thank you for sharing...no plants there tho :-) seems to be no garden...

Not if you don't include the prints on the wall paper. It's not very hospitable for plants - too dark, kinda smokey, noisey. However you do get to drink the plants - all kinds of teas and such. There may also be flowers in a vase on your table.

:-))) well thats good...
