This year we're going for a 1950s village fete feel, and just this morning I finished sewing up a whopping 34 metres of bunting. And tonight, we start baking for the weekend's bake sale... mmmm. It's the only weekend out of the year the public are allowed in past our locked security gates so we try and make everyone feel welcome. No toilets, though!</p> http://londonist.com/2008/06/preview_open_ga.php#comment-1377934 http://londonist.com/2008/06/preview_open_ga.php#comment-1377934 Comments Thu, 05 Jun 2008 10:31:32 +0000 <p>Shoot, I thought for a moment there they might be opening Coram's Fields to unaccompanied adults. No such luck. Must figure out how to get my hands on a child one of these days. Mecklenburgh Square, on the east side of Coram's Fields, will be accessible, and it reportedly has a bunch of rare flora from New Zealand thanks to a past Kiwi gardener. That's about my only bit of relevant garden trivia.</p>
