I will be a first time visitor this year. Any tips or advice would be
much appreciated.

Often wondered if it's better to get there in the afternoon, anyone done
that?

I left it too late to get an all day ticket, so I'll be heading down
for 3:30 on Tuesday which will also be the first time I've been there
on a members day. Maybe I'll actually get to see the big show gardens
this year, I really couldn't be bothered with the queue 2 years ago
when I last went.


Anthony, please let us know how it is in the afternoon when you get back.
I've wondered for a while if the afternoon/evening might be less crowded as
most people seem to want to be there first thing and it does seem to clear a
bit after lunch. We always wanted to be on the tube out of town before the
rush hour so never stayed that late.
