  4. I too like the carrot bath - we can't grow carrots as our loam soil is too heavy - I tried once and only had one carrot that we could eat - had to share it amongst the four of us too! The 'bath' method might work - shame the insurance company put ours in the skip when we had the flood at the cottage!.
    Nice to see how you are getting along though...miss you.

    1. Oooh what a waste, I would have hoicked it right back out again.

      They are easy to pick up though, ask a friendly plumber who's putting in a new bathroom for somebody ... that's what we did and now I've got three 😊

      I've also got a planted up toilet from when Alan changed ours 🤣

  12. Looks all very well thought out. I like the bath. I have an antique claw foot tub I could do something similar.

  15. An amazing transformation from when you first posted photos of your new place in Wales.
    So glad to see this year's planting.
    What are your small trees?
    Take care, Sue xx

    1. The baby trees, if that's the ones you mean, are Oak and Ash. We find little seedlings sprouting where squirrels have left a stash of nuts or seeds buried and forgotten about them, we transplant them into pots ready to replenish our woodland.

    2. Thanks Sue, that answers my question.
      Did you really think you could get away with no one noticing a post?
      Every so often, about once a week, I look hopefully in case you've relented and started blogging again.
      Sue.

  18. What a pleasure to see your blog pop up in Bloglovin, I stopped what I was doing to read. I also pass your lovely home from time to time and try to get a quick glance of the garden from the car but a view inside the net tunnel is a treat. Thanks for sharing
