Naomi: you would love it.

Mage: you would have got some smashing photos.

Map: I'll tell my son - he'll be flattered:)

I am out of town, Pat, and the photos are taking forever to load!! I may have to wait to see them until I get back home.

Aha, The Royal National Rose Society Gardens at St. Albans, somewhere I used to go with my mother as a youngster! I'd get a lot more from it now, having just dedicated a small section of my garden to miniature roses (and pieces of marble).

Somebody should name a new rose after your granddaughter (your son surely by now already has had one named after him...).

Pat said...

Judy: they'll still be here DV.

Map::)

Gadjo: what a lucky boy you were.
There was a rose named Miss Alice but the photo had no definition and it looked like a white blob.

Gorgeous roses and granddaughter!

I had to laugh, reading about your mum, are you sure she doesn't have East Indian or Italian blood? haha.

Mapstew :-D

Pat said...

John: your Dad would love it.

GG: no but quite a lot of Irish:)

Parsnip: thank you - I'll tell her Mum:)

Beautiful gardens and granddaughter! And it looks like you had perfect weather too.

Joey: we certainly couldn't grumble. I'm not sure hazy sunshine is the best for photos, but it's bliss for chillin'
