Following on from Rose Cottage, where we're busy snagging like crazy for the grand Garden Party reveal in July, another little listed cottage in Ladybarn just around the corner in Fallowfield was crying out for a garden makeover.

Moregeous at Didsbury’s new monthly Saturday Food Market
I was trapped inside doing paperwork all day yesterday but my afternoon was brightened by a cupcake office-offering from Mr Moregeous who'd been shopping and wandered through the new Didsbury food market.

His cry of disgust when I popped my finger into one of the blobs and... Continue Reading →

And I get weird and wonderful medical conditions and reactions with names we often can't pronounce. I say it makes for a more interesting and challenging life,... Continue Reading →
