Hello Diane
My word, your son has been busy! I hope your daughter in law and new granddaughter are both doing well now, and the family are all together at home. My husband and I are on our way right now to meet little Eliora – I can’t wait to see her! You and your husband may have to wait a while longer to keep him safe, but I hope you can meet Bobbie-Grace (lovely name!) very soon. And cuddle all five of your grandchildren – I love being a Nana twice over, how wonderful to have five grandchildren!
Take care and I hope you all stay well

Thank you Pauline, very kind of you to say. We’re just so lucky that the glorious weather has made the lockdown time easier, for those of us lucky enough to I have our own outside space at least. It does mean that I haven’t done any of the tidying and sorting that I had planned for inside the house, but at least the garden is looking ok!
Take care

Hi Sandra
Thanks – I love my herb trug! Ali Keenan and her husband Colin came around for a socially distanced meal yesterday – we sat at opposite ends of the table! 😂
I used my home grown thyme in the tomato tart, rosemary in the chicken thigh tray bake and we enjoyed fresh peppermint tea after the meal! And my radishes are about ready to harvest – I’m so enjoying rowing my own food!
Take care

Hi Pamela
Thanks for your message, you’re right – I do enjoy time in my garden. I hope you have things that help you stay as happy as possible at the moment. Stay safe and well.
Best wishes

Hi Kathryn
Well done for growing from seed – I’ve done that for the first time this year and love how I feel when something I showed myself grows! I haven’t eaten any of it yet but the rocket, radishes and lettuce are coming on well. And I’ve tried zinnias and cosmos – no flowers yet but they’re alive!
Good luck with your garden…
Take care

Thanks for your message, Joanna, good to hear from you. We’re on our way to see Ora now, but she also has a medical appointment this afternoon as there are still a few worries. Bex is praying she doesn’t have to return to hospital a second time but at least we’ll get to meet her first, and they are just being careful as she was premature. Can’t wait to see the girls!
Take care and stay well

Hi Susan. I hope your weather has been better in the last week or so – it seems like the whole country has enjoyed some warmth and sunshine. I’m excited to be on my way to see Eliora, and Zoe of course, now we’re allowed to see more than one person. A day in the garden is planned, can’t wait to get there.
I’ll be back at QVC for Morning Style tomorrow, they’ve put in so many measures to keep us safe I felt fine going back last week. Let’s hope we all stay well!
Take care

Hi Debbie, thanks for your message. I’m writing this while Olley drives us to Peterborough to see our granddaughters – I love that plural!! Feeling very excited to meet Eliora and see Zoe again. Today is possibly the last day of this glorious weather so we’re planning a picnic in the garden…
Take care and stay well
