I was a first aider in my previous job for many years and I did courses before that.I can honestly say it’s one of the best things I’ve ever done. Even if you’re injured you can tell someone else what to do. A small package of folded mixed bandages/gauzes will cover most things and can be carried an...

I need to fix my little plastic greenhouse, one leggings is snapped. My salad plants didn’t do well last year. Car serviced and a suspension strut replaced. Dentist booked and medical appointments for my brother. Pantry and fridge full. Batch of ginger beer on the go. House cleaned, laundry done. Ca...

Quite slow growing but you can grow them all year round on a windowsill so even if you have no garden it’s an easy way of generating fresh green food. I’ve sta...

Things get too hot/ too cold/ wet/ eaten by slugs and aphids so I’ve moved some things around several times. I’ve got a bumper crop of two tomat...

Good for you for getting those going! Must admit I’ve tinkered with the idea of growing something like this but not sure how much room we need in the garden for a reasonable batch. Any advice? Thank you.
