That's a real pity, I never thought it would be so noisy because it's always so calm and peaceful on TV. It's unfortunate that you couldn't see more of it.
I used to live down the road from Hampton Court, but never been to the flower show there. Been into the palace and grounds a few times and it was very nice. I imagine the flower show wouldn't be so crowded either as the gardens are much larger
Mmm - it's later in the year:
Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival. I must check whether there are any coach trips.
