Re: UK's Gardening Magazine

	Yes, it is a very attractive mag.  I use to belong to RHS "The Garden" but
	elected to drop it.... what a pity.  I would not recommend dropping "The Garden"
	to anyone.  I know they have a url .  Maybe a search in the archive would
	bring up the url for all of us to view.

	Now with this great presentation from Graham, I didn't see him mentioning
	about his photo in the publication. Nice photo Graham.

	Limited interest...hmm... I think, there are a lot of great ideas in the magazine
	which support the normal gardener. Graham is true to state... most of it
	does focus on UK gardeners.
