Late pregnancy this time round has been a total crusher of energy. Partly, I suppose, because I'm older, partly because I have two other little people … Continue reading Autumn days at Sissinghurst

Notes from a summer: Regent’s Park sunshine

September 15, 2015 ~ Wolves in London ~ 13 Comments

A few Fridays ago, I had the most blissfully relaxing day I have had for some time. Possibly for three years, in fact. The thing about living with small kids, I find, is that no matter how many wonderful, cute, endearing individual moments there are, day-to-day life can feel a lot like a repetitive slog. … Continue reading Notes from a summer: Regent’s Park sunshine

Bishop’s palace and gardens

June 11, 2015June 10, 2015 ~ Wolves in London ~ 6 Comments

Perhaps this is a terrible indictment on the state of education in the UK, but the extent of my knowledge about the bishop of Bath and Wells (of whom, presumably, there have been many) is his appearance in Blackadder.

Painshill Park: the weirdness of landscape gardens

May 23, 2015 ~ Wolves in London ~ 9 Comments

Hot on the heels of my trip to Eltham Palace to check out the 1930s planting, yesterday saw me visiting Painshill Park in Surrey, this time to visit an 18th century landscape garden.

This is the teetering pile of books by my bed. And though I promised myself I would finish them all before I let any new ones into the house, I’ve just succumbed and ordered a few more from my brilliant local bookshop @rye_books (Luster and Notes to Self are both on their way to me...)
There’s been a bit of a break, but houseplant clinic is back tonight. Head to my Stories for the question sticker and ask anything you’d like to know about houseplants! Plants for spaces, problems with your plants, plant inspiration... I’ll answer as many as I can, starting at 8pm this evening. Happy Sunday all.
