Christmas Greetings to all in the Orthodox Church, wherever you are in the world. May the coming year be peaceful and harmonious for you. #Orthodox #church #Christmas #greetings

It's now not just Epiphany, but time to bring out one of my favourite poems. Now the Work of Christmas Begins..

Good morning all.🌄 I hope everyone who is now returning back to work has a good start to the year. ✨
A great time to make peace with your past and move forward with hope and joy. #Epiphany #MentalHealth

And so, I bid you all goodnight, not from Cumbria, but now in Canterbury for a short break. As we move from Christmas to Epiphany, here is a rather chilly night shot of the cathedral. #Sunday #cathedral #Church

I love the peaceful little churches dotted around the Cumbrian countryside. Top of my list is Wythburn church, built in 1640 and later restored in 1872. The bee-hive apse is a lovely feature. As with many churches in Cumbria, it's open most days. #cumbria #historicchurch #England #sunday #church

ER post box with a nice large white label pointing out it's a post box - in the wall of Hesket Newmarket Community Shop & Post Office, which the locals are fighting against the closure of. hesketnewmarket-communityshop.co.uk #Cumbria #postboxsaturday

A dinky ER postbox with an even dinkier little brother (aka Birdbox) lurking in the background. Outside a private cottage garden in Finsthwaite #cumbria #postboxsaturday

It may be cold outside, but spring has arrived on the small window edge next to my desk. A few plants and forced bulbs, bought locally, make all the difference. #indoor #winter #garden #cumbria

It's evening now, so, time to put my feet up & listen to my favourite radio programme: BBC Radio 4's GQT. A radio institution that's been dispensing horticultural advice since 1947.
Broadcast at Fri 3pm & Sun 2pm (or on BBC Sounds).
Proof the BBC gets some things right. #radio #garden #bbc

Hello from a dull, damp #Cumbria. Cheered up by colourful plants on the window ledge🌺 still growing well, despite all the rain. Yes, the heather is painted pink & while; no, I really don't care,anything to get some colour (that is not red) in the winter🌾 #planter #plants #garden #outdoorliving

Memorial Service for Dean Robert Willis.
The service be at 3pm on Sunday, 2nd February and will be in Salisbury Cathedral (UK). #gardencongregation #CanterburyCathedral #memorialservice #DeanRobertWillis

Art meets nature with this amazing kinetic #sculptures that stands (at around 6 ft tall) in the RHS Harlow Carr garden
- mesmerising to watch #art #garden #outdoor #Yorkshire

In keeping with tradition, I have a Poinsettia in my cottage (but pink rather than the more usual red).
Given that it's native to Mexico, poinsettias have become an iconic symbol of Christmas. #december #christmas #flower #indoor #plant

‪Good morning everyone, wherever you are in the world, from
#cumbria on not just the 1st December but the first day of Advent.
Wishing you all hope, peace, joy, and love in your life, regardless of your beliefs.
#greetings #Advent #december1st

My take on a #container #garden. 3 mini succulents, cactus compost, a few small stones to decorate, a bowl and a plate from the ricebyrice.com/collections/... collection. And hey presto, an instant cactus garden. #indoor #plant

Last week I visited the RHS Harlow Carr,
went into the Alpine House & saw some amazing plants. Top of my favourites-list is this imaginative arrangement of Sempervivums with a wonderful use of rocks. #plants #Alpine #garden #containers #indoorgarden

Here's a box for your delectation.
