I love spending time in my garden, mostly sitting reading or crocheting. I usually talk about food, books, Sheffield, making things, life in general.

Today's #10MinutesInTheGarden was finishing clearing the dead plant from the archway... so the tangle of dead twigs has now been removed... ready to plant something new there... but I'll probably wait until the spring... as I can't decide what I want...

The thought of ending up with a life carrying an epi-pen... would definitely make me moderate my intake... but I doubt if I would stop altogether... as my dad was a doctor... and always told me to try to avoid cutting things out completely...

It just gets better as the programme goes on... I can't believe that it's actually mostly people I recognise... and I'm really looking forward to watching their interactions...

I get really grumpy when I have to do all of that in one day... because I always end up rushing to finish... and making a mess of it...

Covid messes with all sorts of bits and pieces... and loves leaving scraps behind to torment you later... thankfully it hasn't done too much psych stuff on me... but it has taught my body new random symptoms to get... whenever I'm tired & run down... audiobooks and films usually get me through it...

They certainly sometimes accept things that I think are random letter combinations... and not a word at all...

It's too good to wait to get started... I couldn't bear to leave it at the end of the programme... and had a late night after watching uncloaked... I didn't expect the celebrity version to be anywhere near this good...

It's Thursday... but a normal one... as my parents are busy... so I don't need to spend most of the morning chatting on the phone... and have the freedom to do whatever I want... so I'll probably go for a wander...

Covid is horrid... and seems to be slightly different each time you get it... sorry that you are still suffering with it... keep resting as much as you can... and hopefully it will leave you soon...

#CelebrityTraitors is going to be so much better than I expected... I thought I preferred it with ordinary people... but this is fabulous... and so many twists in just the first episode...

I don't want to see any of them leave yet... I want to watch them interact...

😅😅😅 I nearly died of shock... I was only just starting to look for possibilities for the 2nd letter...

It might take you a couple of episodes to get fully hooked in... and understand what is going on... I remember the first one being quite bewildering...

Today's word was one of the daft words I often use to home in on where the word is... I got it in 6... usually it's something like 13 or 16...

My 10 was actually 30... and way too tedious to double it...

I thought you were more likely to be stroppy peasants like my family... of miners & agricultural labourers... I'm not sure your compliant enough... to come from a dynasty of servants...

It will probably hide... until moments after you reluctantly take delivery of a replacement for it...

Not mad at all... I can see them too... although I used to travel on the train with someone who called me mad Helen... so maybe I don't count...
