My first Open Gardens event of the year, visiting Gringley-on-the-Hill, only seventeen miles away in Nottinghamshire. It's a pretty village which I've visited several times before but today I got to visit areas I've not previous seen; there were only six gardens scheduled to be open today, but two of them were actually closed.
The village is hilly and Siobhan, my support worker, struggled a bit; the carpark is at the bottom of a hill and by the time we'd climbed up to community centre to purchase our wristbabds and programmes we were both ready for a sit down and something to eat. Siobhan purchased a sandwich but I got a Gainsborough pasty.
The classic car display was rather disappointing, most of the vehicles were fairly recent...but there were a few nice ones.
