Did you know there is a beautiful natural park within a 10-minute walk of Kings X St Pancras and the British Library. Run by the London Wildlife Trust. No dogs, alcohol or glassware in the park itself, but a very nice café with views of the canal.

🌱 A few winters ago, we bought some Willow twigs at Columbia Road Market for indoor decoration. Eventually they were put outside in a container in a corner of the garden which promptly filled with water. One twig sprouted a side shoot. I trimmed it and put it in a pot on the deck.
