The trumpets shall sound!!!
George is leaving his development HQ and will invade GB!
I never visited Chelsea, but from what I read about it it can be a hectic event. Fortunately you're a stress resistent guy, George  :)

Yes, it will be strange being away from HQ for a whole week  ;D
I'm looking forward to the visits to the other RHS gardens on the tour just as much André. In fact, I think I will enjoy that even more.
I prefer to see gardens in their permanent state rather than in a "showcase".
Mind you, that may change if the show is as good as its hyped up to be!

No doubt some of our members have been to Chelsea. Any comments, advice perhaps? I'm only there for one day, so as you say it will certainly be hectic!
