I wrote a useful little script today for importing JPEG images into word from a folder (mostly this is only useful if you want to import a PDF you have saved as JPEG’s. You can find it here, or via the old website menu above. I hope some of you out there find it of some use.

Recently I, finally, started to enclose the hot tub (I will write an article on how to rebuild a hot tub from a unit that has been dragged backwards through a hedge and is in pieces as soon as I know how to do it myself) after it has sat in our garden for the last 2 years. This has had the effect [...]

A little while ago we planted some Strawberry seeds and then later found that some seeds we’d planted last year were growing, so we thought it would be nice to give our two little strawberry plants a home of their own.

Sadly things seem to be growing better in the end of the compost heap that had the least of my home-made compost. Also something seems to already be eating the plants! And to cap it all [...]

Well it’s been almost 2 weeks since we scattered the seed for our mini-meadow, and still no sign of any little shoots. Of course we did have a mini-snow-shower the day after we scattered the seeds, and a minor frost during the first week after planting, and it does say to allow up to 21 days for [...]

Me? Struggling for post titles? It’s like you are saying there isn’t anything all that interesting about compost….
