BBC Local Radio Competition 'Where I live'

BBC Local Radio organised a competition entitled 'Where I Live'.

The prize for the four winners was to have their garden built at Hampton Court Palace Flower Show.

 

 

The garden is based on a small fisherman's cottage at L'Etacq, St Ouen near where I live.

The lady that lives there sells Jersey Royal potatoes and other vegetables, which are kept in a box on the wall by the roadside.

 

It is a typically Jersey scene.

 

 

 

Delighted with the opportunity to have a show garden at such a prestigious flower show, to get a Bronze medal was the icing on the cake !

 

 

 

How I came to enter the competition.

This article was published in our local Parish magazine and tells the story of how I came to enter the competition and what happened when I arrived at Hampton Court Palace Flower Show.
