Exeter City on this day

[Spoonz Red E]

Primroses, primroses!

There are still primroses at SJP descended from the original. Pete Bishop, I think, took some home and cultivated them over the years and some were returned a few years back.

They were planted in what is now known as the Memorial Garden and hopefully will popping their heads up in the next month or two !

It would be great if a green fingered volunteer or two, started a propagation programme in order to gradually introduce them along the new bank formed behind the away end facing on to St James's Road. It certainly would be a most suitable way to enhance that area.

According to wiki, Paul Masefield's one and only appearance unless he was a programme change! Someone I had (possibly understandably) forgotten about.
