  • Restructuring

    Restructuring

    I am having a moment of restructuring everything! I have abandoned my .co.uk website (brave I know 🙄) and have reverted back to WordPress which is altogether easier to keep up with and dip into. I have no idea how this will pan out but it felt good to shrug off one element that I…

  • Growing veg again 🥰

    I am sorry to those who like to read the blog and keep up with what I am doing because I just haven’t written anything for a long while. Some of that has to do with the long winter months and nothing much happening and some of it has to do with life in general.…

  • Where is the sun?

    Everyday I have the best intention to go outside and get some work done but the truth is that often I go out for a while and get too cold so I abandon that. Occasionally we have had a day that is fabulous but it is still only early February and it is true to…

  • We had some nice weather!

    It is not even 9am yet and I have been very busy, I have just sat down to type up this as I am waiting for the kitchen floor to dry after mopping it. Already this morning I have had a shower, put two loads of washing on, cleaned and hoovered the bathroom, hoovered and…

  • Vile weather we are having!

    The weather, as always is the hot topic of the day, week, month but I count my blessings that we did not have the 100 mile an hour winds like they did in Ireland and Scotland. Three storms in the last week alone does not bode well at all, they are getting more and more…

  • Preparing for the year ahead.

    The weather has warmed a little but it’s still only around 3/4c most days, sometimes with a heavy fog, plenty of conspiracy theories online about this 🙄 We have managed to do a bit outside although there comes a point when fingers and toes are protesting a lot and that’s the time for me to…

  • Cold 🥶

    Cold 🥶

    That’s a bit of an understatement! It has been freezing this week, not by some standards around the world but definitely by ours. The thermometer in my greenhouse registered -5 on the coldest night which means it was at least -8 outside and that didn’t really let up during the day either. Needless to say…

  • Happy New Year 🥳

    I totally lost my way when it came to the blog during the last year, I started writing a piece so many times that I have a plethora of drafts I now need to delete! What was wrong? Writers block, lack of confidence, nothing to say? A combination of those and more I suppose but…

  • It’s been a while, sorry 😣

    It’s been a while, sorry 😣

    September 2024: It has been ages since I last blogged and I am really sorry, I started so many drafts only to get caught up in life in general that they never made to publishing 🤪 It has been a busy few months, on the flower side of things business has been brisk, different to…

  • Sunshine, flowers & a stolen flower shed!

    Sunshine, flowers & a stolen flower shed!

    Monday 24th June 2024: It seems like the months are whizzing past lol. Sorry about the lack of blogging I have either been too busy or too tired to keep up with it. Summer has finally arrived after all the rubbish weather and this week we have wall to wall sunshine which means of course…
