It’s a lovely cotoneaster, great for bees in spring as it’s very nectar rich, brilliant for small birds in winter. If it’s a slow growing one, it shouldn’t need much pruning but late winter/ early spring before the new growth is ideal

I’ve managed to convince myself I could rebuild a crumbling Chateau in France because of YouTube, despite not speaking French, being rubbish at DIY & having multiple chronic autoimmune illnesses that limit my mobility!

I know that feeling, my Masters took nearly 5 years part-time. I felt both relieved and bereft at the end of it. Still can’t believe I did it & keep expecting someone to email me and tell me they made a mistake!

Congratulations, I graduated my Masters last year and know just how much effort it takes!

Was talking about this the other day, mainly because the Royal Mail have issued D&D stamps. I loved Dragons of Autumn Twilight, very soft spot for Tasslehoff!

If there is I’m up for it!

Yep, it’s a go to quote for me as well. It sums it up so beautifully

I’ve deliberately not read it either and I really want to but then it’s truly the end or is it because I’ve read all of the others multiple times, some like Equal Rites atleast a dozen times!
