Excellent blog Jo. I remember asking another designer how they plan for the on-site activities at Chelsea and they said that you carefully plan for the first few stages of the build and then it has to more or less sort itself out on-site because as you and Robert Burns point out: "The best laid schemes of mice and men go oft awry"
This is so interesting to read! I have heard Alan, Monty and the others talk about tired and emotional but this gives a inside view that at least I have never heard or read! Brilliant that you share this with us! ❤️
I love the care you take not to blame what isn't anyone's fault.

I’ve tried every which way, Tim and whichever way you go about it, something stymies you!

I’m glad you enjoy it, Eva! More to come....
Really enjoyed reading this. Can’t subscribe at the moment, I’m in an unplanned for situation and my income has halved recently.
All the very best with this show garden, it explains just how nerve wracking the build and construction phase really is.
Thank-you Jo.
May all go well.
Hi Jilly - it was indeed nerve-wracking - this was actually three years ago but still feels like yesterday!
