Lowther Pavillion Summer Ball
My good friend Peter Taylor gave me a seriously huge challenge, could we dress the tables for the summer ball (an event designed to raise money for the preservation and upkeep of Lowther
) with virtually no budget.
It is amazing how spectacular Chrysanth & Solidago can look with great lighting, super vases and mirror plates and also how much money can be raised by the raffling of these "Creations".

I am not thankfully a "Flower Snob" I do truly love all flowers as long as the quality is good.
I would much rather see vases of Chrysanth and Solidago than bundles of air filled latex, I would hope that goes for everyone other than those people with a "Thing about Rubber"
Paul Rowley and the team from Rowley's Catering were responsible for the banquet which I believe was first class.
And should you wish to use any of my pictures on your blogs etc please do, but do me the good turn of linking back to my site and crediting Flower Design with the imagery, it's just good blogging manners!

SiverDell Book Shop in Kirkham Presents, Julian Clary in Conversation with Our Very Own Peter Taylor
Jason and I dressed the stage the great people at Lowther Pavillion, mopped, set the lights and as the saying goes the stage was set....
Elaine from SilverDell, welcomed the huge audience that filled Lowther each member of the audience was given a signed copy of Julian's latest novel "Devil in Disguise", Sue from Silverdell was behind the scenes ensuring that all ran smoothly.
Peter Taylor was first on stage, he thanked us all for our attendance, for our very much needed support of Lowther and then he introduced Julian...
Julian regaled us with tales of "Fanny the Wonder Dog", "The Joan Collins Fan Club", affairs at "Strictly Come Dancing" and so much more including reading some seriously entertaining excerts from his novel.
Peter Taylor did, as we all knew he would the most brilliant "Parkinson" impression ever seen, he was quite wonderful, utterly entertaining yet completely in charge, not easy with a guest as excellent if not just little tricky as Julian Clary, well done Peter, we were very proud of you.
Sue & Elaine do such a fabulous job of organising these literary extravaganzas and it's great that this sort of thing also helps to support local businesses and of course Lowther.
After the conversation Julian added messages to the signed books and had his picture taken with members of the audience, a great night was had by all.
