Fleur @garymarsh6 My partner recently announced that he doesn't want to travel. He has not enjoyed our last couple of family holidays, he just found it all too stressful (and we found it stressful dealing with him!!) Apparently he even tried watching a few travel...

I recently read the book ‘Lark Rise to Candleford’ by Flora Thompson. It has been on my shelf for some years and I inherited it from my Dad. It was originally published in three parts in1939 to 1943. I really enjoyed it – but...

Fleur @Traceyjayne I would maybe use two barrels... rosemary and thyme are both woody perennials and like dryish sunny conditions. Oregano will take over everywhere, and parsley prefers cooler, damper and more shady places.

Fleur Good luck! I have never tried growing rosemary from seed, or thyme. Much easier to grow from cuttings (especially if you find a bushy plant in someone's garden that's extending over the wall or pavement, for example )

We ate something from a can, again, but George's starting to ask for meals more often and not just salad. Nothing wring with them, but his body needs more. I also caught him eating peanuts, too. Which are good for him as well. He...

Fleur Thank you. It looks very green there (apart from the purple clematis flowers in the corner) but the rest of the garden that I'm looking out on is rather more colourful!

I’m not a very strict gardener. My vegetable patch is nothing like those immaculate allotments you see, with rows of perfect vegetables and not a weed to be seen between them. If plants self-seed and I don’t yet need the space for...

Fleur @JudyEv It does, doesn't it? I didn't know who wrote it, but it seems to be Frank Irving Fletcher (1881 - 1963).

Fleur @JudyEv Yes, in general. As @LadyDuck says it does sometimes get you more attention than you wanted but on the whole I would say it was a positive thing.
