Just come back from the National Botanical gardens of Wales.
Here are a few photos. There was a lot more going on just didn't take that many photos.

I went early morning , there was a good size crowd as i was leaving .
Not a bad show , there were also stands from Charnwood , Robert Sorby and Timberman.
All i bought was a 9 inch wide by 24 inch long x 1 inch thick piece of London Plane for a Tenner .
Will get a few pen blanks out of that hopefully.

Johnny I am indebted to you for your wonderful pics and slice of life over your way mate noticed the elusive burl and wonderful Banksia nut from Western Australia both a hell of a long way from Australia very nostalgic. SWMBO has given me the red light alert to get moving. Wonderful peep at the event mate.

Some great photos Johnny :thumbs:
I particularly like the tools and the carved spoons :love_it:
But I can't believe the prices of those burrs and banksia nots :shocking:
