2020 nearly gone, the year when we all got sore behind the ears from wearing masks. Not quite clear whether and when we’ll get back to where we were before the pandemic. Meanwhile may I wish you as Merry a Christmas as possible and I’m sure we’re all hoping for better in 2021: I’m really looking forward to getting those jabs.

A sanctuary for me and the birds and the bees during this biological war: my patio garden in West London. And remembering Come in to the garden, Maud, Tennyson’s poem and the Victorian parlour song about the emotional impact of the Crimean War of that era. Just forty years later, houses like this were built over the the fertile market gardens of Fulham Fields.
My garden has had a lot more attention than usual over the past few weeks and is looking pretty much at its best. The birds are happy too.
