WIN Tickets to Gardening Scotland 2008


GARDENING Scotland 2008 is Scotland’s national gardening and outdoor event and takes place this year from Friday 30 May until Sunday 1 June at The Royal Highland Centre, Edinburgh.

Over the course of three days, the showground will be filled with the colour and scent of hundreds and thousands of beautiful and colourful blooms - all of them at the peak of perfection.

At the very heart of the Show will be the Dobbies Floral Hall, where the top nurseries from across the UK, many of them specialist growers who scour the four corners of the world to find rare and unusual flowers, come to sell the plants they’ve lovingly raised.
This is the biggest plant sale of its kind in Scotland and the range of plants and flowers on sale here is unrivalled anywhere in the country.

A highlight for visitors are the Show Gardens, where the cream of Scotland’s design talent will be providing inspiration to visitors with their creative solutions for large and small gardens.

Meanwhile on a miniature scale, a record number of schools and gardening clubs will compete in the Pallet Garden Competition, where the challenge is to create a living landscape in a space no bigger than one square metre.
New at Gardening Scotland 2008 will be a very special fashion show featuring a range of gardening clothes made from organic and biodegradable materials. Using fabrics such as hemp, jute and nettle fibre, the clothing has been designed to end its days on the compost heap once its working life is over.

Thanks to a vibrant craft marquee, an international village, BBC Scotland Beechgrove Theatre, the Living Garden, Food Fayre, fun activities in the Big Back Garden and free entry for children, it is a great day out for all the family.

Win one of 25 meals at Gourmet Burger Kitchen

The idea for Gourmet Burger Kitchen originated in New Zealand where cuisine over the last five years has extended to incorporate ‘food on the go’ such as burgers. Where once the traditional burger was seen purely as a fast food option, gourmet burgers have knocked tradition on the head. Gourmet Burger Kitchen has created a nutritious sophisticated product using the best and freshest ingredients available.

The Gourmet Burger Kitchen menu has been consulted on by leading New Zealand and London based chef Peter Gordon, whose involvement has been key in creating the menu which offers an extensive range of freshly prepared burgers to suit all tastes and appetites and offers classic flavour combinations such as Chicken, Camembert and Cranberry, and Beef, Avocado and Bacon. It then goes one step further with exciting new burger combinations such as Chorizo and Sweet Potato, Lamb and Minted Relish, or the vegetarian Portabella Mushroom burger.

The specially developed GBK sauces and relishes help to define each burger.
Not just any ingredients will do, Gourmet Burger Kitchen uses only the best ingredients available to create each burger. The oversized sourdough buns are baked each morning by our artisan baker and the Aberdeen Angus Scotch Beef, fresh English chicken and fresh vegetables are delivered each day. Gourmet Burger Kitchen uses only 100% Aberdeen Angus Scotch Beef which is sourced from fully traceable grass reared animals.
Gourmet Burger Kitchen and Edinburgh Times have teamed up to offer 25 readers a voucher to the value of £50 redeemable against meals.

Terms & Conditions
Only valid at Gourmet Burger Kitchen, Edinburgh until 1st July 2008, not to be used in conjunction with any other offer.
No change given on vouchers.
