An Old Trick

May 12, 2016May 12, 2016 KateLeave a comment

I bought some runner bean seeds for this year. They popped their heads above the soil and there is a problem. They are too tall and sick looking. I'm fairly certain that it isn't my planting but something wrong with the seeds. Three of them have no leaves. They have simply grown a stick. It… Continue reading An Old Trick

Sun and mud

May 8, 2016May 8, 2016 Kate6 Comments

Today has been beautiful. The sun has been shining and it has been a good day. Okay I admit that I woke up with a load of aches and pains. But I decided to push through them. I was able to clear the pea bed... It's bare now but by next week it should have… Continue reading Sun and mud

Snow in April

April 28, 2016April 28, 2016 Kate4 Comments

I thought it was meant to be showers? It is April showers... right? Except we have had snow, hail and ice. Last night we were at -1. What? I mean I'm used to Wales... I know that sometimes the weather can be tough. I mean last year the climate did nothing but rain. But this… Continue reading Snow in April

Sheep Update

April 26, 2016April 25, 2016 KateLeave a comment

Remember that lamb? The one that we found in the smallholding and we were surprised to see. Namely because we were meant to have a barren ewe. Well, she is doing fine. As are her Mum and Dad.

Storm damage

April 25, 2016 Kate2 Comments

I live in Wales and normally there is nothing drastic that happens here. Sure we have storms but they are not massive. Then 2015 started to end. I should have known that there was something wrong when the weatherman started naming the storms. Naming them! But my family and I just laughed it off. We… Continue reading Storm damage

Herby

April 20, 2016April 19, 2016 KateLeave a comment

My mum has been busy putting in a new herb bed. I know that the weather is getting better because we are working out in the garden more. This bed is next to the house and easy to pick from. I must admit that already we are having fresh herbs in meals and it tastes… Continue reading Herby

Who said the countryside was quiet?

April 13, 2016April 13, 2016 Kate4 Comments

I hit my workshop this morning and  was about to sit down when I realised I could hear the sheep. At first I thought they were the ones in the next field but they sounded awful close. I closed the lid of my laptop and tried to pry my mind from the latest book - it's getting… Continue reading Who said the countryside was quiet?
