Retired. Very fond of the Archers. Loves sewing, books - crime, espionage, spies etc, gardening, food.
Just finished the brilliant Maggie O’Farrell book ‘After You’d Gone’, so very good, wonderful read. Love Maggie’s work so very much. I have read Hamnet, and The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox previously

#TheArchers.
Catching up now with last week’s omnibus. What the heck is going on?? Utterly ridiculous storyline of 3 scam victims/stories. Is this the limit of the current scriptwriters imagination? Stupid, stupid.

This book is a lump in throat time. Beautiful artwork and words. Short story.

Lovely tree/shrub in flower now, with a lovely name of Harlequin Glorybower.

#thearchers this George storyline is more stupid as each day goes on, and more of a smell of other less realistic radio/TV ‘dramas’.
Please, someone find George a semblance of a backbone.

I can’t believe Emma and William are conspiring to prevent the reporting of a criminal offence.

I did hope that this clematis flower would be bigger, but it is very pretty as it is. 🌱

I did not know that there is a tree called ‘Hornbeam Hop’. There is one in my local green space. 🌱
Waiting for my hops to develop.

Lily, despite best efforts of the lily beetles. Very gross squishing them. 🌱

Heartbreaking watching this, and the work that our NHS staff did, with so little.
The bloody government, and bloody Boris, why the did, and did not do was shocking.
