My second stranger from last weeks Open Gardens Day, In Nottingham's Park Estate.
Well it was actually my first bit I have posted it second !
This is Gordon, who is the owner of one of the houses who opened their gardens to the public.
I started talking to Gordon asking him about his garden and where the sun, set and rose in his garden. Gordon told me the best spots to eat breakfast, lunch and tea Al Fresco.
It was a lovely garden , very mature with lots of lawn space. I asked Gordon if he had a gardener. Gordon told me he did make use of a gardener but also liked to do some gardening too.
There was a band playing in Gordon's garden, the Red Hat Band. I asked Gordon what was the connection between him and the band.
Gordon told me there was no connection. He was part of the organising committee for the Open Day and volunteered his garden as a venue for the band. In fact Gordon is the only male on the organising committee. The event brochure showed a picture of the committee and Roger was the only male in a group of 16 volunteers.
Gordon was a charted survey before he retired. I asked Gordon if he had done any prestigious buildings, but Gordon explained it just tended to be commercial properties.
After our chat I introduced Gordon to the idea of being one of my strangers, which he was only to happy to accept, as can be seen by his lovely smile.
We shook hand after the photoshoot and as I left I heard Gordon telling his wife about our meeting :)
Thanks for being stranger number 90 Gordon.
