Wow...a massive swarm of bees has just flown overhead while I'm working in the garden. Never seen that before, but from the sound I knew in an instant it was a swarm!

After segregating my chickens for 4 weeks due to bullying and feather pecking...within 2 minutes of letting them mix today, they were back pulling and eating feathers again ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜

Decided to let the chickens out in the sunshine to start digging in the green manure in the veg beds. Roll on spring ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐ŸŒพ

Home from holiday to this beauty...I thought it was a cabbage. Pigeons have stripped the leaves, but it's one of my biggest cauliflowers ever

Today was a lawn day! 2 cu metres of thatch removed, 3 cuts. And now it's getting a good rain on. A couple of bald patches to re seed tomorrow.

I am just inundated with #slugs and #snails this year - never known anything like it. Lost all my corriander, lemon basil and lettuce overnight. Clearly they have good taste...but enough now please!
