Just one of his huge trays of Purpureas, must have had around 4 or five in total

Thank you very much Daniel for posting the photos. For those of us far away, it gives us a little of the experience we would have if we were able to be there in person. Mike's plants look great! And nice seeing the photo of you and your friend Noah. :)

I was going to go but I have a really nasty habit of nailbiting related to stress which cancelled the deal with my dad. My nailbiting habit started about 2 years ago (I don't know what made me start it) and have been getting told off from my dad ever since up to about a month ago when I finally started to stop biting.

The deal, since its Mike King's place is so far away (164 miles), was to get all A's, or level 7/8s in my end of year exams to be able to visit the open day. However, my nail got chipped and I bit the sharp areas since it kept getting caught on clothing which my dad saw me doing and he throught I started my habit again so he cancelled the deal. :cry: I was so upset, I was looking foward to this for a year...

At least I can still beg my dad to take me to Mike King's open day in october! :lol:

So basically, what I was going to say is that I hope you had a wonderful day and thanks for the cool photos as well! :D

BTW, is Noah in your pictures the Noah as 'TheInactiveMoth' on CPUK forums?

Thanks guys!
Darkrai, that's just gutting! I had to travel around 115 miles to get there, but my deal was to pay for hire and petrol. came to just over £50.

It'd be great to see you there in October if you can get there. And yes, that is TheInactiveMoth :)

Just put something with a bad taste on your fingernails, I even believe they sell stuff in the pharmacy for that.

On topic: Great pictures.
