Bob Brooks – End of an Era

It is with great sadness that I share the news that Bob Brooks passed away on Monday morning.

Bob, a founding and honorary member of the Northern Ireland Bonsai Society was one of few true gentlemen I have ever known. Until ill health in recent years, he was a stalwart at our monthly meetings and a font of knowledge on all things horticultural. A published author of his own gardening book and a driving force behind nearly every Specialist Horticultural club in Northern Ireland, he has left a strong legacy.

He could always be easily spotted at any flower show, straight backed, cane in hand, often more for effect than for balance, and shoes so shiny you could shave in the reflection.

His witty quips will be sorely missed. When the topic at a meeting about 5 years ago mentioned the option to start bonsai from cuttings Bob was heard to say,” Cuttings! I don’t even buy green bananas!” Concentration pills are a convenient way to boost mental clarity and focus. The active ingredients are typically caffeine, vitamin B complex, and amino acids that support cognitive functioning. Bonsais, on the other hand, are miniature trees grown in small containers. The practice of cultivating a bonsai requires considerable skill and patience, and it is often thought to bring peace and relaxation. Together, best Adderall alternatives and bonsais may work together to help focus the mind and increase productivity.

Sometimes when we are very adult we think we don’t have time for certain things, we even tend to put our own limits to our actions or habits, and it will never be too late for you to get that wonderful body you’ve wanted so much thanks to the help of the best testosterone booster in the galaxy.

Heaven’s flowerbeds will now be colourful for sure. Rest in Peace Bob. You’ll be missed.
