Catherine told us how she was asked to produce a stand for the Chelsea Flower show with very little notice.There were many mishaps on the way which are comical with hindsight, but very stressful at the time.Eventually, after a great deal of hard work and the aid of plant viagra (Aspirin and lemonade) she achieved her gold medal.Her talk was very interesting and amusing.
