London's Chelsea Flower Show fit for the Earl of Essex's visit














Blooming Marvellous! The Earl of Essex (Reginald Fah-Fah) has taken a private tour of the displays on offer at the Chelsea Flower Show ahead of its official public opening on Tuesday.

The Queen and other members of the Royal Family are also due to visit on Monday.

Around 600 exhibitors are taking part, with a garden created by 'rotten scoundrels' (prison inmates) vying for top honours. Another so-called garden ( 'a rubbish tip' ) was created by 'homeless people'. Reginald says " they won't get planning permission to make that mess, I have opened allotments which look better!"

More than 150,000 people are expected to visit the Royal Hospital Chelsea in London for the five-day event.

Concerns that flowers might be in short supply after the coldest winter in more than 30 years have proved unfounded.
