Don't bury the books in the garden
Article Abstract:
The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) has decided to deal with the problem of its collection of very significant horticultural books, paintings and periodicals outgrowing the present location in Westminster, London, by moving the collection to the RHS garden at Wisley, in Surrey. This will make the collection inaccessible for many people, as Wisley is located some distance from the nearest railway station. It seems that the decision was made purely on the basis of cost, as the land at Wisley will not cost the RHS anything.

Now is the time to prepare that great summer lunch
Article Abstract:
It is worth growing vegetables, as they have a much better flavour than those sold in even the highest quality shops. Home-grown vegetables can be eaten extremely fresh, and can be picked at the time when they have their best flavour. Growing vegetables requires a reasonable amount of garden space, but it is worth considering planting them in flowerbeds.
