Delighted to announce that we have acquired Munstead Wood, the home and garden of Gertrude Jekyll

Jekyll changed horticultural history from Munstead, so this is an exciting opportunity to share the story of this remarkable woman to a new generation

Chaucer, imagining ideal love as a place where green May lasts forever:

'Thorgh me men gon into that blysful place
Of hertes hele and dedly woundes cure;
Thorgh me men gon unto the welle of grace,
There grene and lusty May shal ever endure;
This is the wey to al good aventure.'

@loujnicholls @DartCharge Two other things to check: did you change your car during the period and has the card to which auto repayments are made been reissued with a new expiry date?

Had a really weird experience with Charlie Dimmock's twitter account over the last 2 days or so
So I reached out to people who know her, turns out she's not ON twitter or any social media!
So if you're following with an account who is acting like they're her it's not
Plz RT

@LifeatNo27 Takes me back to the 50's when I was a Boy Scout ! But I think the tents we were using first saw service in the Boer War. They were big and heavy and leaked like a sieve !

Kale is a really solid choice for anyone trying their hand at GYO. I’m growing “Dazzling Blue” this year. So straightforward from seed & I’ll be cropping the same plants from now right through to March. Great VFM.
