My wife and I (seem to have heard that expression before somewhere!!), have visited some of the major garden centres in the past few days. Holland Arms, Gaerwen, Stapeley Water Gardens, Bridgemere Garden World, Trentham Gardens and Grosvenor Garden Centre. Vast areas have been given over to their Christmas displays and Santa's grottos and it's only October. Still I suppose the sparkly lights cheer us up a little bit at a somewhat depressing time of the year when the nights are rapidly drawing in and I think the clocks go back next weekend. But that does mean an extra hour in bed - so something to look forward to..
Stapeley and Bridgemere appear to be in the throes of major revamps but of those we visited Trentham was the most impressive, and you can get Cadwalladr's ice cream there as well.
