    Can We Be As Caring As Animals Please?

    I’m having one of those emotional days and this video sure did tug at them so of course I had to share it with you. Let me know what you think.

    News Round Up!

    It has come to my attention that I’ve been very busy lately and haven’t shared much of it with you – so it’s time to change that. This post will have lots of pictures, despite me getting ever closer to my WordPress ‘limit’! In the spirit of Christmas, I’ll begin with showing you some tractors…

    I’m not a fan of AI but…

    When I saw this all I could say was ‘Wow’ If you haven’t already seen this brace yourself. Some of our favourite ‘real’ actors are in this clip – you know the ones who can actually act, don’t all look the same and don’t resemble a human coat hanger. Whoever made this has done a…

    I made an advert!

    It’s true. Some of you who have been with me for a long time now, will know that I like to dabble in poetry and I have had my very first poetry book published this year. Now, anyone who has a poetry book out will tell you, it’s not going to earn you a million!…

  • Garlic – done differently!

    Garlic – done differently!

    Instead of just planting garlic in the ground, I tried a few different methods to get it growing and I’m delighted with the results. A couple of years ago, on the allotment, I planted out all my garlic and waited patiently. Sadly, all – and I mean ALL of it, rotted away in the cold…

  • The Final Day of My Garden Challenge

    The Final Day of My Garden Challenge

    This is THE most important job you can do in your garden. It might be the most important and yet it’s one I don’t do as much as I should. In fact, I’m going to go out on a limb and say most of you don’t do this job as much as you should and…

    Day 6 of My Garden Challenge!

    After yesterday, this one was a real delight. When I was thinking about all the jobs I needed to do in the garden, I always had one job in mind. What does a garden need once you’ve done a bit of tidying and tackled jobs you were putting off for ages? I’m not thinking new…

    Day 5 of My Garden Challenge!

    Now the work really begins… Ok I confess – today is more of a project than a garden ‘job’. Someone had told me in the comments section of my YouTube channel, that turkey-tail mushrooms were thought to have amazing anti-cancer properties. But where to get some? Well, as it happens, you could just buy some,…

    Day 4 of My Garden Challenge

    This is a small job but it makes a BIG difference! When I was looking round the front garden I knew something had to be done to tidy it up a bit. I’m not ready to weed it yet. I like it looking fuller at this time of the year and it stops the neighbour’s…

    Day 3 of My Garden Challenge

    This is a job I’d been putting off! Day 3 of the garden challenge was meant for a job I’d been putting off for a long time – the polytunnel. I knew it had taken a battering during storm Amy and I’ll be honest, I hadn’t opened the doors for some time. When I did…

    Day 2 of My Garden Challenge

    Continuing on from yesterday’s post, today is all about tidying and preparing. I have an area in the garden which I’m continuously working on to improve and make it look a little better than before! If you remember, I took out some fruit trees in the back garden that weren’t working for me. I used…

    Garden Challenge – 7 Days 7 Jobs: Day 1

    I came up with the idea of doing a job a day in the garden, for 7 days. Those little jobs, the ones we keep putting off because we’ll ‘get to it someday’ – you know the ones, right? Problem was – my back. Yes, it had been strained a bit on the Sunday before…
