David and I have been having loads of fun in our garden recently. I got David a brilliant book for Christmas on growing fruit, herbs and veggies and we have already created 2 potato towers to grow both red and sweet potatoes. We have also planted herbs, carrots, strawberries, onion, aubergines, lettuces and bok choi. [...]
Happy New Year Everyone! At last 2012 is here. It was a challenging 2011, most of which me and David spent thousands of miles apart, so it was lovely to spend this evening together. After 5 years in Australia I had never been to the Sydney fireworks, so it was time to do it. We [...]

Me and Charlie met Sharron at The Entrance. We had a delicious lunch in the park and Charlie enjoyed lots of cuddles.
