had a day out at the Malvern show Sunday and O' what a lovely day it was to a lovely sunny day plenty to see many plant stalls parking well managed plenty of seats and eating places very little hold ups getting there  all in all a good day had by all not bothering to go to Chelsea this year Malvern is much better for me as I don't feel like a sardine in a tin at Malvern  anyway I couldn't drink all that Pimms and catch the train 

must remember to visit the Malvern Autumn show

I try to get to Hampton Court Flower show every year and same as you think it's much better than Chelsea .  Chelsea is just far to cramped and crowded and I think the people that go there go to see and be seen vs interested in the garden stuff.

Glad you enjoyed Malvern - I'd like to get to that one as well one day
