We made an early departure because we were headed to the garden of Nori and Sandra Pope in Somerset. On the way, Michael, our driver decided to take a bit of a side trip to drive by Stonehenge. We arrived at Hadpsen Garden, were greeted by both and set out to see the gardens. They have a lovely little tea room, and a garden centre that was quite busy while we were there. Before you knew it, it was time to leave and head to our hotel by Heathrow airport. This was very handy for the Hampton Court Palace Flower Show.
(We also sang the national anthems and more!) http://www.hadspengarden.freeserve.co.uk/
