    What is really getting to me at the moment is that people are buying chickens.
    Really? Oh God. Animal cruelty in the offing. I imagine some fools will be trying to buy bees and spaghetti trees. :(

    My daughter had started gardening club at secondary, before her school closed. She spent a couple of hours yesterday planting up a pot with pansies. Today’s project is putting some lettuce and sunflower seeds in to germinate 🌱
    Thank god for gardens and good weather, at least.
