I asked my specialist this question a few months ago and he looked back at me like a rabbit trapped in the headlights, “I just match symptoms to drugs” he said, useless! I wanted to know what was happening to cause the brain fog, why I suddenly needed 2 hours...
Today I’m repairing the bathroom. On Friday I removed the loose tiles, cleaned them up and removed the sodden plasterboard that was behind them. I then replaced the plaster board with broken tiles to build up the levels and applied the cleaned up tiles again. This is all dry now,...
As I emptied the recycling from the kitchen into the bin today I was struck by just how amazing the contents would have seemed only a few hundred years ago. The aluminium cans, the trays, the glass and plastic bottles would have been treasures, now they are rubbish. The seven...

It’s our allotments open day on Saturday, Debbie and I will be on our plots if you want to come along and say hello #digforvictory #selfsufficient #backyardgarden #kitchengarden #allotment #allotmentlife
First post COVID harvest and the first time it’s felt like we have an abundance of summer fruits #digforvictory #selfsufficient #backyardgarden #kitchengarden #allotment #allotmentlife
We’ve had a great first half of the year, grown way more than last year from the same land. The bumper harvests are over now as I turn my focus towards autumn, winter and spring abundance. While harvesting ‘just enough’ over summer #digforvictory #selfsufficient #backyardgarden #kitchengarden #allotment #allotmentlife
Broke another harvest record this week, brining our total for the year to £4,000 close to a 20% increase on last year from the same land with more increases to come, especially in autumn and spring. I’ve increased close to 20% every year so far #digforvictory #selfsufficient #backyardgarden #kitchengarden #allotment #allotmentlife
Weekly harvests are just as we like them now, not too big, not too small, just right. We let the table be our guide #digforvictory #selfsufficient #backyardgarden #kitchengarden #allotment #allotmentlife
