The Vegetable Patch
I have been asked - what does the vegetable patch look like? So, here are some photos. This first one is of the orchard. It's only 5 years old so the trees are still babies. Okay from here you take the right hand path - you can just see it worn away a little. On the… Continue reading The Vegetable Patch
Fire in the soil
I don't blog much about my vegetable patch, although I have a third of an acre that I work on. But earlier this year, despite the bad weather, we had a disaster... No chilies. Although that is a bit of a lie, we had one. Sweet peppers we have masses of them but the hot… Continue reading Fire in the soil
Parties
Have you ever seen 'The Sixth Sense'? Well, there is a party in it. This is how I used to feel as a child when I got the invites (not the ghost bit but the party). I'm sure that I was invited because the whole class was, and to leave me off would be too… Continue reading Parties

So I thought I'd share the ones I have posted over the last few days as they make sense and run together nicely.… Continue reading Comics… and having a go.

Addiction
Most people wouldn't see this as an addiction. I mean food can't hurt, can it? It can and it does. Addiction to a certain type of food, in my case caramel and chocolate, can make your life a living hell. Imagine cigarettes are good for you, imagine that they were part of something bigger that… Continue reading Addiction
Where I live
I realised that most won't know where I live so here it is... I live in the Cambrian Mountains. Near a town called Tregaron. On a smallholding. With poultry and a decent view... Sorry it isn't looking its best but the spring has only just arrived and everything is only just waking up. We are… Continue reading Where I live
I have a favour to ask…
I am in a competition but in order to win I need my story to be read and liked via the links on the page. It's free so my ask is that as many of you who can go over and give it a read. Thank you... 'With Purpose' by Kate Murray
