Radio 3 is a lovely, gentle start to the day for anyone prefering to avoid news media today. Music which is balm for the soul. Just remember to switch off during the news bulletins.

Been wrapping things up in the garden ahead of a cold snap. It is always sad to tuck the garden up for winter. But over Christmas the planning of sowing, growing, planting & nurturing begins. And all that promise is exciting & joyful.

This gave me goosebumps.
“My 18-year-old daughter was at Starbucks, alone, the other night.
A man came up to her and started talking to her.
A barista handed her “an extra hot chocolate someone forgot to pick up.”
How grateful I am for people who look out for other people!”
We need each other.

Panel member of Grenfell inquiry in tears as she lays out how the deaths of 72 people was avoidable & needless. May their memory forever be a stain on the conscience of all those who put greed before duty of care. Just because someone is poor should never mean they don't count.

Our Siamese seedling is coming along nicely. Might need repotting soon, though it looks pretty comfortable. Likes a sunny aspect, fresh water and regular feeding.

Gardeners, I am considering giving winter cauliflowers a first go. I hear cauli is tricky to grow though. Any tips or advice before I buy some plug plants would be much appreciated. Thinking Aalsmeer might be ok for my northern garden?
