RHS Flower Show atton Park

I've had a few hours to think about the RHS Tatton Park flower show and the overall impression is '...are well um...'.  There were some incredible displays of flowers but there was a huge amount of very expensive tack.  Perhaps the most absurd thing I saw was the long queue of people trying to get into the Fortnum and Mason's over priced tent.  Clearly you try and get in there for one upmanship and yet to stand there in a the damp in a vain attempt to get really does look very silly.

As I drove away I felt a tinge of disappointment.  Will I go again?   I doubt it but it was worth while finding out what it was like.
