Mustn't grumble -- It's Chelsea Week
The Times of London has a lovely package of stories about the Chelsea Flower Show, which opens tomorrow.
Grumble.
The Guardian has a pretty slideshow.
Grumblegrumble.
And I'm at work. Saving money for my new kitchen.
My mom keeps reminding me that for many people, a trip to the Chelsea Flower Show, which runs through Saturday, is a once in a lifetime experience, and I've had more than my fair share.
She says it's hard to understand me when I'm sticking my tongue out at her.
So we'll all be enjoying the show on the Web this year.
I have a supply of English magazines, chocolate biscuits, some single-serving steamed puddings and a large container of cream. I would recommend you have a Pimm's cup and enjoy the Chelsea updates this week.

Please be civil. Vicious comments, personal attacks and profanity won't be published.
A once in a lifetime experience? Is New Year's once in a lifetime? Thanksgiving? Some of us expect these to be annual treats, and get rather cranky when we are deprived. Maybe there's a way to claim garden shows as religious holidays ;)
