2020 is going to be one of those years I'll just never forget. We've had Coronavirus and been in lockdown for weeks. What with stockpilers of toilet rolls and idiots who decided lockdown wasn't for them and held parties and BBQs...

Despite us still being in lockdown here in the UK, I've been out more in the last week or so than I have since lockdown began. My first trip out was to attend my mother's funeral the Monday before last. Strange affair as the...

Hanni Harel @olliesmum I am so so sorry for your loss. Poor Dusky. That is horrible. That will be very hard for you since you have not had her long. That is the only thing you can do is keep on loving Dusky.

Although I've ordered a couple of tomato plants for my garden I decided I may as well have a go at growing some from seed. I don't have a greenhouse but what I do have is a sunny windowsill in the bathroom, plenty of compost and...

Although these little beauties don't belong to me I'm fortunate enough to be able to see a bluebell wood just across the meadow from the bottom of my garden. This beautiful little flower is native to the UK and is usually found...

The other night when it turned a bit chilly both my cats decided to hog the fire. Sadly, this photograph isn't brilliant as, despite three attempts, the flash didn't work. I wasn't able to take another as both the cats woke up...

Although getting past Mother's Day - so at least she saw the flowers and was able to eat the chocolates that I sent her in her care home - sadly my mum passed away on Thursday afternoon. My sister received a call from the care...

Over here in the UK it's Mothering Sunday and normally our village would be packed with cars as children and grandchildren come to visit their mothers and grandmothers. However, despite the weather being gorgeous and sunny, the...

So I may not want to go too close to other humans - 6-8 ft has been recommended, but at least I can 'isolate' myself in my back garden. This morning is very windy but beautifully sunny so I nipped out to see what was happening in...

I bought a packet of daffodil bulbs last autumn and they were supposed to be single flowered ones - some with yellow centres and some with orange. However, I think whoever packed the bulbs must have found an odd one as this...

Judy Evans @olliesmum Vin and I were both brought up by very frugal parents too and we can get a meal out of very little. Some of the younger people have absolutely no idea how to get a cheap meal.
