@GardenerFliss My nephews, now both grown up, talk about the times they had with us on our smallholding as small boys, the freedom to run, splash about and explore, but also responsible jobs of helping feed the animals, and watching chick's hatch in the incubator

On the farm puddles aren’t a nuisance they’re an adventure waiting to happen. And one day, when they’ve grown, it won’t be the spotless days they remember… it’ll be the muddy ones. #FarmLife #CountryKids #SimpleJoys #MuddyPuddles #GrowingUpRural

@MusicAmun 😅😅😅😅

Phew, I see that crude oil prices are down by 10% today. I assume there will be a 10p per ltr drop at the pumps later today or tomorrow

@MervHughes332 I love them raw

Yep …. Love em!!

@autisticgardner Happy birthday 🎂

Happy birthday to me. 🥳🥳🥳

@growyourown1971 I start mine off in pots, yes that's load of pots, but it gives me a month's start on planting them out in late April when the ground is warm enough for them to go in

Onion sets in.Had to net them this year until they're established,to stop the cats potentially digging them up.🙈😊

@growyourown1971 Good Friday is the traditional day for planting spuds for me

Duke of York first earlies in. As per St Patrick's day tradition ☘️😊 #growyourown

@MervHughes332 Full 20 for me

18 for me!!

@aNorthernGarden Nothing at the moment, will start sowing broad beans and peas this month, ready to go out early April after the frosts

What veg have people sown? I've got onions, leeks cauliflower, broccoli and lettuce just emerging in the greenhouse. I'll need to get tomatoes and peppers sown soon and set the seed potstoes up to chit. #GardensHour

@SandyofSuffolk @logicalityman Yes my mum worked as well

@logicalityman Mine did but she was a rarity.

Going to school aged 5 in 1963 we were all toilet trained, could use cutlery, pens, knew the alphabet, could read Janet and John books, could tell the time, tie our shoelaces and ties, button up our coats and knew our own address. And between then and now somehow it all went wrong. But why?

@pvt_ak As I read this hubby is making the same soup for lunch today

Thought I’d make some bread to go with tonight’s leek and tatty soup. #bread #baking

@MusicAmun Nooooo way too early, but knowwhat you mean about the itch

@SandyofSuffolk We're in Northumberland and love it

Beware northerners. My house has gone under offer. I'm viewing properties in North Yorkshire and Co Durham next week. I'm coming. 😜

@greendragon123 Used to get that when we lived in York

Wind is in the right direction....sugar beet factory #sunnysuffolk 😀

@GillW1220 @Jeanett65825582 @SandyofSuffolk @patmcfaddenmp You are right, It was a great talking point at the time

@Jeanett65825582 @SandyofSuffolk @patmcfaddenmp But you must had had a television or radio in 1993 when this was originally announced in the Budget. Or read it in the paper when it was reported in there, it was also a big topic of conversation amongst women, so you would have discussed with people, surely?

So the reason the government are now giving for not compensating WASPI women is 'If we'd sent letters out to them, they probably wouldn't have read them'. Pat McFadden @patmcfaddenmp you're an utter fool if you think we're falling for that. It's a lazy statement made with no basis in fact. Just an assumption by a lying government who made promises in 2022 and reneged on them once elected.

@Jeanett65825582 @SandyofSuffolk @patmcfaddenmp 1958 also, I did receive notice that pension age was to rise, so have known since my 30's. Also realised with the equality act, pension age for men not going down, so women's was going to go up at some point to make us all equal.

@SandyofSuffolk @patmcfaddenmp 1958 women! To this date I have never received a letter or notice of change! Do not look at this through today’s technology,

@LoveGrowingVeg I'm having to reconsider how I garden since my back "went" last year. Moving over to no dig this year on the allotment

Vegetable seed ordered, cropping plans done. Just need my back to mend sufficiently and spring to hurry up and then its go, go, go in the garden 🤞💚

@SandyofSuffolk You are definitely not alone. TV hardly goes on in our house, just for what we want to watch

I've never: Watched Traitors. Watched Strictly Come Dancing. Watched I'm a Celebrity...... Watched Big Brother. Watched Love Island. Watched Stranger Things. Nor have I ever ordered fast food to be delivered to my home while not watching any of the above. Please tell me I'm not alone.

Sheep blocks for a country themed quilt I'm making #quilt #sewing

@pvt_ak @HelenCollantine I put what bin needs to go out in the diary on my phone. Works for me

@HelenCollantine I need you on my street !

This is me lol
