      Rob, I'm not keen on shirtbutton's, "Great Western" is more my style. Even so, maybe it could work the Port Bredy extension.

      Rob, not so much any more. Yesterday it was full of idiots, foreign tour groups, and luvvies with no interest or knowledge in horticulture. we've gone for the past 10 years. This was likely our last. TV presence is now far too intrusive. I could rant on....
