Ordering Seeds during Lockdown
I usually start picking up seeds in February and March from local garden centres but, with all the things happening this year, I didn’t buy any before lockdown started. All garden centres closed their doors and have yet to fully re-open. I’m also not keen to go to the shops to buy seeds. I’m not…
Vlog – Sowing Seeds
Time for a Vlog! Please help my channel out by giving the video a like and subscribing. It would be great to build a small community on YouTube. In this episode, I sow courgette, lettuce, radish, peas, and tomatoes. We’ve had a stunning and really warm April and I’m keen to make sure I get…

January Tasks
January is a cold, dark and wet month here in Norfolk, UK. It is far from being my favourite month. There is nothing pleasant about being outside this time of the year, especially when the log fire is roaring in the lounge and a Sunday roast is on the go. It’s the time of the…
Start of a New Year – January 2020
I remember being a kid watching programmes set in the future. It’s strange to think that we are now living in it. Unfortunately, while the date reflects the shows I watched; we lack space travel and flying cars. Instead, the future has brought me a busy job, two children and a mortgage which seems to…
End of 2019
Its the start of the new year and I take a moment to reflect on 2019. It’s been hit and miss during 2019 and now my garden is being destroyed by the building work taking place to extend my home.
