Happy Friday!

I hope you’ve all had a wonderful Easter break. I have been away for a week, staying with friends in the sun which was just what the doctor ordered. A week of proper switching off; no laptop, no school run, no getting in the car full stop; just hanging out with my boys, lots of laughing, lots of chatting… We then came home to more sun and all the tulips flowering and it feels like a whole new world! It’s amazing the difference a week makes isn’t it? How is your garden looking?

My Greenhouse Update

I have longed for a greenhouse for about ten years and finally, she is here! The boxes were delivered back in January and have been sitting patiently waiting ever since for nice James from the Greenhouse People to come and put it all together. He finished last night and now we have a dark green, 7ft x. 12ft Victorian style vision of a greenhouse sitting in the garden, ready for action. I can’t get my head around the fact that it’s actually here! I am so excited to get in there and start sowing seeds. First on my list is Ammi, Cosmos, Corncockle and zinnias; and warming up my dahlias which I’m a little behind on. If anyone has any greenhouse tips, please do share them!
