Hello,
Myself, Mrs ALERT and the 4 kids were at Bloom on Sunday, it rained but we were well prepared and forewarned by the ever accurate BBC 1 weather forecast. I felt that Eur35 was money well spent and it was a shame it rained on what I felt was a well organised event. The show gardens were interesting for the most part but not enough of them, I was disappointed to miss out on "The garden that no-one saw" as their electics were tripped by flooding. My one gripe would be with the retailers present, .. very poor show of salesmanship, some stall people were almost indifferent to the point of rudeness, quite a few were surprisingly ill-informed and I was told on more than one occasion to check details on their websites, I'm hoping that the real sales-people were at mass or something.
ALERT.
