Spring

Starting work on a new book for Holiday House.
Flowers at my friend's mothers memorial.
My magical Magnolia(and new patio area, made from all recycled bits... I'm doing lots of work in the garden)
Proofs for my books published by Templar in July.
Super potty pot by Scott Garrett.
Dartmoor and Dog.
My springtime lounge.
Pigeon painting.

Roses, rain and a teenager

My first born turned 13
This is now what he is like...
The rain has made the garden wild, I love it this way.
I have planted all these plants from nothing so it gives so much joy to see them grow,
I love my scented Roses.
But the slugs and snails have had a party and ate lots of my young veg plants.
Grrrrr!

Yay!

The sun is out and it's so beautiful!
All I want to do is potter, sit and think or read in my garden.
We came home and found a young baby magpie at our front door, the children begged me to keep it.
But Mother knows best, and what is wild should not be tamed.
Book I'm reading is Living dolls the return of sexism by Natasha Walters.
