AS THE WOOLSERY OPEN GARDENS WEEKEND LOOMS...


I bet that you have never seen a photograph of someone refurbishing a wabe before. A wabe (according to Lewis Carroll is the bit of ground around the base of a sundial), and ours was badly in need of refurbishing. But why has it been done now?


The weekend of the 26/27th June is a momentous one in Woolsery, because it is the weekend that we throw our gates open to all and sundry, as part of a fundraising drive for local charities. I am the third generation of my family to be living in Myrtle Cottage, and my father and grandmother would be turning in their respective graves at the thought of visitors to what is now the CFZ garden being confronted with a shoddy wabe.


So there!
