Today at my parents, the cat walked in and sat down in front of the tv to watch The Boy, the mole, the fox and the horse. He watched it all. Only thing is - they don’t have a cat 🐈‍⬛

Ambling down the lane picking blackberries with Turnip following me, singing the song of his people as chat to him about spud blight, 3 eggs in my hand from the chickens. Suddenly dawns on me “this is how women ended up burned as witches Sarah” as I spot the neighbour looking 🤦🏻‍♀️

Hey #HomesundertheHammer could you stop promoting plastic death carpets on your program? At least change the language - stripping all life out of the garden means you’ve not got a garden just a death hellscape. Looks tacky as hell too.

All my potatoes have blight. It’s taken my outside tomatoes too. My courgettes haven’t fruited. My French beans failed. My runner beans will be just one picking? The cabbage have failed. The broccoli have failed. As did the radish. Even the cosmos hasn’t flowered. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’m making a crochet star shaped blanket as a gift and I can’t get the maths to work so it’s not lying flat, it’ll always drape. That’s ok though isn’t it? It’s pure wool so I don’t want to unpick it as the yarn is fiddly to use 😣

Watching the Dads Army film on ITV and all the tea cups and china are wrong. For starters, Royal Albert Country Rose wasn’t made until 1962. And this is the problem with knowing anything about antiques or vintage goods, period tv gets ruined 😂

#LIOLI @KirstieMAllsopp PLEASE - for the love of Humanity stop promoting Plastic Lawns! It causes mass microplastic pollution that enters the water system and kills life. It leaches toxins into the soil killing life. It’s the asbestos roof tile of our time. Just stop 🛑

Just as a side note - it’s not my first rodeo, I’ve been growing plants and veg plants since childhood. And this is a huge organic plot. I also have no hedgehogs and very few birds. Everything is wrong out there.

While we’re at it, the sheer amount of ticks I’ve seen has been unbelievable. No birds to eat them & damp cond. It’s incredibly frightening as I have Lyme disease from a tick bite, & I missed the window of treatment because “you can’t get Lyme in south Wales” well you can now.

There was a loud meow this morning from the back yard and in he came. He looks emaciated & I think he’s been locked in somewhere. He’s also quite grumpy for the usually placid Turnip but I think it’s probably fear making him upset. But he’s alive which is excellent ❤️

@JaneyGodley We had a stray turn up in the spring that was eating the hedgehog food we put out for our rescue 🦔. He ended up being called Turnip because he slept in the Turnip patch and “turned up”. He’s so loving, and best mates with the dog now.
