| Does anyone know when the car boot sale will be held this year? I have looked on the FOBBS site and theres no mention of it, and have looked on the Birmingham Botanical Garden website but that hasn't been updated for 2 years. |

Hey, I'm jealous. Birmingham is a bit too far for me - especially for an 8 o'clock start.
Wouldn't it be fun if you could all wear your Bonsai Help T shirts that you got when you paid your membership fee (I wish!)  |
