Husb and I are keen gardeners, well, no, that’s not true. I’m a keen gardener and Husb would happily fill the garden with concrete and Astroturf! Our garden is small but we also have an allotment and grow a lot of fruit and some veg. At this time of year, we’re picking our produce whichContinue reading “Concrete And Astroturf??!!”

Rhubarb At The Castle

We found Carew on one of our impromptu drivesContinue reading “Carew, an Ancient Place of Celts, Castle, Carvings and an Amazing Tidal Mill”
Cwtching computer cat
It’s funny how cats choose their people. All the cats that have lived with us have preferred one more than the other. Little Ming has been Melvyn’s cat from the start; she follows him around and she’s especially clingy when he’s using his computer. She rolls about on his PC keyboard and pushes in betweenContinue reading “Cwtching computer cat”
