Judges from Heart of England in Bloom visited Ross-on-Wye on Tuesday to admire the hard work put in by Ross in Bloom and the community as a whole, in making Ross an attractive town to visit.

I caught up with the judges (pleading my innocence, of course) at the Prospect, where the Ross in Bloom team proudly showed off the beautiful flower beds. Following a photo call for Wyenot News and various newspapers, the judges went on to Ross Court, where they were greeted by Millie White, the Carnival princess before looking around the beautiful gardens. After taking afternoon tea at Ross Court, the judges then returned to the area of St. Mary's, where they admired the wonderful work of Rose Dean, Gail Lucas and their team in tidying up the once overgrown Garden of Remembrance.

We will not know how Ross fared in the judging until September but wish all who worked so hard on this event the success they deserve.

BUSINESS CARD SIZE, NO HYPERLINK - £10.00 PER MONTH

PICTURE WITH HYPERLINK - £20 PER MONTH

(Payable in advance. Page placement dependent on amount of
news during any one week.)

The absolute deadline for Wyenot News stories and other items is 12:00, midday on Tuesday, for inclusion in the following day's edition.

PLEASE NOTE HOWEVER: This is an absolute deadline and not the time I am asking for articles to be sent in. Mondays and Tuesdays here at 'Wyenot News' are Hell with by far, the most events I cover occurring at the weekend. The photography that the public sees happening is only one tiny part of the whole picture (please excuse the pun) of running this weekly news publication and the bits of prep that people do not see, are actually the most time consuming part of getting the story out.

If at all possible, please send your story in as early as you can, rather than wait until the very last minute, so that I can have at least a fighting chance of getting to bed before 3:00 am every Tuesday and Wednesday morning after what has lately become two 18 hour working days on the trot.

Thank you very much for your understanding and help.
