......and I don’t want to hassle them anymore. It’s not like I’ve got a string of critics queuing up who I need to schmooze with canapés lol. I’m sure you’ll see far more interesting things in Sri Lanka than in the depths of the Fens and in my pictu…

Aw, I know you would UT and I’d be deeply honoured, but no I’m not planning that. To be honest the gallery ( which is a room leased out in a stately home) has been struggling a bit to keep on top of things after the sudden and sad death of its coord…

Oh, also some blueberries, gooseberries and red cherries, but I think the gooseberry bushes have died :(

As for fruit and veg, we are lucky to have a cooking apple tree, two eating apple trees, a pear and cherry tree, a rhubarb patch, and in the greenhouse I grow herbs, courgettes, tomatoes. I’m a happy bunny once Gardeners a World is back on the box!

I’m even more chuffed! When we got back from the hedgehog hospital, we found mama duck was still in the front garden, but her Drake beau was with her, sigh! Both were happy to be quacked at while we unloaded the hogs and transported them to the tort…

You e already seen a couple of my works. Once I’ve got my price list and publicity papers together I’ll let you see more. It all goes up next Saturday and I had planned to get busy on that this weekend but have had no bloody time as usual. I’m worki…

Post something nostalgic from your youth or childhood
Maybe after all this Facebook fiasco some former Forum Frappers will flock back. I will control my inner ( and vocal) conspiracy theorist tendencies and bite my tongue......

Just a case of being busy Serenity. uT is on his travels, I’m settling in to my new job and when Spring arrives I’m always outdoors as much as possible. Others are probably the same. Your thread isn’t boring at all, personally though I can’t imagine…

Actually she has a kangaroo and a cow by the side of her bed and I have a rocking horse next to mine. Wait! This is way too personal! Chronic insomniacs need separate rooms and we both keep critters for company.

Don’t tempt me not to!!!! You have no idea how tempting it is to keep them in my tortoise garden. But they need to go forth and multiply!

Yay! Good news today folks! Pumpkin the hedgehog, whom I’m sure you remember I rescued last Autumn, is now ready for release into the wild. The amazing lady who has looked after him over Winter rang me today to tell me that he survived, that he is n…

That’s not taxidermy by the way, just plush. Strangely, I was having a conversation about Kate Bush and The Dreaming with a new work colleague today. Finally, I’m on the same page as someone I work with!

Probably, she did live in Oz for quite a while. I may have said this before, but two Christmases ago I bought her a five foot stuffed kangaroo which sits by her bed. Creeps the hell out of me.

Darling......you’re showing your age again. Look it up under 70s survival skills. I actually saw a macrame three tiered plant pot holder yesterday and was tempted to buy it. I pulled myself back from the brink just in time.

I must add, she’s also a black belt at karate and an accomplished diver ( don’t even think about it UT). Kind of a bit James Bondish in a blonde ninja sort of way. Or was...until she started teaching.

Yes yes....we know which one. Catherine is also a flautist but no pink oboes in our house, just purple strict machines!
