V pleased to have contributed to this fine gardening supplement in today’s Observer. My bit is on gardening when you have very little space. Also a piece on spiritual gardens. I’m in fine company, too @kendrapagewilson and @botanygeek. Thanks @aliceefisher.

This is an actual ducking stool at Leominster Prio

This is an actual ducking stool at Leominster Priory. The last woman ducked was called Jenny Pipes. Not sure what her ‘crime’ was. Probably asking her husband to put the bins out. Gruesome reminder of how humans can behave.

The Priory is spectacular btw, it even has a green man.

I have been learning hedge laying with the brilliant Martin of @colwallorchardgroup. Here’s the result. A very satisfying way to spend a morning. Now to apply it to my own unruly hedge.

An advance copy of my next book has arrived. An exciting moment. It was a real pleasure to write as I got to ruminate on all my favourite things, including whistling, afternoon naps, rocking chairs and the weight of a cat on the lap.

Published on 7 April (National Trust).

Big thanks to @clairesmasset, #nationaltrustbooks and the team at @pavilionbooks and illustrator @theboyfrost for such a handsome creation.

Meet Cutie, the lamb who never grew up, who is on

Meet Cutie, the lamb who never grew up, who is on loan to keep my last surviving Herdwick company. (The other five died from extreme old age.) She was raised by a local family (the children named her) and is the darlingest creature. Very friendly with super soft ears.
