Well, guys, can clearly see you're out of my price range:-) I think I'm
paying a *lot* for my membership in the RHS at some $54-55 a year that
includes (IMO) the best monthly hortmag going; 'The Garden'.....
However, it's good you-all have experience with a weekly pub from the UK to
set the matter straight.
