Reads fiction, fan of dogs, interested in people and politics. Very occasional life saver. Described as 'better than nothing' by a colleague👍 Algorithm generated word of 2026 'potato'.
2 weeks away has resulted in a lot of weeding but also crazy growth of courgettes, squash, pumpkin, potatoes, beans and cabbages. 🌱
So I'm in Lewis and can recommend this trilogy. It's a long time since I binged books but I'm partway through the third book after 9 days! 💙📚
I am obsessed with the Isle of Lewis. This is our view from our pad for the next couple of weeks. And t's still light at 11pm.
🌱 honestly was ambivalent about growing potatoes but this early crop is an absolute joy!
🌱 been a busy weekend, learnt that radishes suffer the same fate as cabbages from insects!
🌱 I'm growing cosmos and helenium from seed this year but nature always takes the crown even in lay-bys and grass verges.
🌱 more allotmenting today despite the rain. I chucked some wild seed I've 'rescued' from my travels in a bed as well, we'll see what happens.
🌱 Look, they might not be prize winners but these are the first leeks I've grown and I am BEYOND excited!
