The blogging - its funny isn't it things change and you don't know quite where you'll go next. Some feedback at interviews recently told me I was 'not as horticulturally focussed as I could be'. Whilst I know I don't write that often these days on here about plants and growing its in my core - so I think that has really made me think. Thank you for taking the time to pop by I know we're all busy with our lives buts lovely when we can. You'll LOVE our new area - so many beaches and interesting parts to it - my first purchase is a large OS map of the area and to start exploring.Fay McKenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14573998704716650377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3810916424535818779.post-14548751351819284302014-04-29T03:37:00.624+01:002014-04-29T03:37:00.624+01:00Please don't stop blogging; I wholeheartedly e...Please don't stop blogging; I wholeheartedly enjoy your writing.

During our move in the opposite direction, I found that posting was useful in organising thoughts that were otherwise frazzled by the uber-chaos of transplanting our lives. And though Our Lass was 'conveniently' absent for all the packing, our girls were a great help, making sure their old dad was ok. And this despite all those years of "Are you coming to help on the allotment?"<br /><br />I really appreciated the willow facts, many thanks, as it has dawned upon me that planting a bazillion willows in the garden is only the beginning.
