Infomaniac Garden Photos Event Announcement

This is a public service announcement!

The House of

I N F O M A N I A C

has announced a change of venue for its

 

10th Anniversary Garden Photos Event

And that venue is right here on this very blog!

 To say that I am honoured and delighted would be an understatement.  That The Very Mistress chose me to be the host for this prestigious event-

Some choice.  No one else volunteered!

Shhhhhhhhhhh!  That's neither here nor there.

Yes, let him have his moment.

What?  Why are you agreeing?

 When you lot have quite finished?!  Now.  Where was I?
 Oh, yes: this prestigious event.  Um...  Line?

You were going to say something about how grateful you were that
The Very Mistress couldn't be bothered to get off her quince an-

 I most certainly was not! Don't listen him, Very Mistress!  He's been afternoon drinking.  Again...

So have you!

 Yes, but it affects you more because you're smaller.  Besides, I'm only on our second glass...

 Oh, for christ's sakes...  Let's have some Q&As and photos while those two bicker amongst themselves:

Some sort of clematis on the paysho*

What does this mean?  What's going on?  Where am I?

 This will basically be the same Garden Photos Event that you all know and love except that it will be held here, at Inexplicable DeVice, rather than at Infomaniac.

Who are you?  Will I have to do anything different?  I don't like change...

 We (my host and me, plus the pesky SubConsciousnesses) are a witch and have been a loyal Infomaniac Bitch for years and years and years.  And, other than emailing your garden photos to me and then visiting this blog to have a nose around everyone else's gardens, no, you won't have to do anything different.
 Well...

What did I just say about change?!

 Oh, okay.  We might introduce one or two small changes/ideas/themes...
 I was thinking that we might have a Terrifying Triffidery section - a place for photos of monstrous plants or otherwise ordinary plants that have been photographed from odd angles/close up/while drunk which make them look otherworldly. 
 Or, maybe, a Guess the Plant section consisting of (cropped) photos of plant parts?
 Anyway, just bear this in mind while you are nurturing and photographing your garden/balcony/pot plant/potato...
 Something that is staying the same though is that the Event will be held in the Autumn (Fall for you Americans, and Spring for Dinahmow and other Southern Hemisphere dwellers) so you have several months of growing and photographing to prepare.  I shall, of course, be posting reminders throughout the season (as will The Very Mistress, I'm sure) to make sure that you don't forget.

 Now, after all this hard work, I need a drink-
Your third!
 Whatever.  Here, have a look at my moist woodland garden while I get some more wine:

That's a blueberry in the blue pot

Oh, nice - a view  of the compost bins.  Where's that wine...?

 Oh, and next year it's someone else's turn to host the Infomaniac Garden Photos Event!


* Pronounced how it's spelled as "pat-ee-oh" is vulgar.  As you should know by now!
