I agree how important a garden can be - I love gardening, it is therapeutic

Trying to tell us snails are ok after years of saying they're not

I enjoy pruning …aka chopping things down I am finding going on walks therapeutic at the moment ….it’s the only bright spot in my day

I moved my outside garden storage box yesterday , ready for the tap installation ….bliddy good job I did it in advance ….there were dozens of slugs under it

Awww Baz it's a shame when life is limited and this virus thing has been rotten. Our garden has been a real haven, we have several posh garden nurseries that serve food (some serve champers) but i haven't been to them in ages

Ooh yeah - we were gonna get one of those - we have a huge space for one too

I moved a pot last year - there was a butterfly under one - it must have just hatched - so lucky not to get squished LOL

Yes, we’ve got two nice nurseries quite near me ….but as I don’t drive I can’t get to them …..but the beautiful park we’ve got …..or anywhere else that is over about 4/5kms away ….cos that’s the limit for my ankle these days .
