In Jane's final weeks the hospice gave Jane incredible support and peace of mind. Any contribution I can make to this incredible organisation is worth every penny. As this image shows each flower was placed on show at Lincoln Castle for several weeks and I collected mine on Sunday. Not a day passes without me thinking about Jane and how special she was. No matter what happens in my life it will never be the same again, not even close.

The veg plot is up to scratch and the seeds sown in the potting shed are coming along really well.

I'm sorry to say the rest of the garden is not looking too good It requires some serious work and thoughtful design. I've said that for the last two years but this is the year I make a difference... Watch this space.
