I always like to be inspired by what the garden has to offer, even if it doesn’t seem like there's much around, but at the moment I love how the snowdrops are poking through the dead montbretia leaves...

I’m still on the Lemsips today, but not really feeling ill, just a bit slow and tired, so I’ve also been filling up on raw garlic, ginger, lemon and a bit of colour therapy...

I’ve been out and about on the bike a lot recently and when the garden is in the process of slowly recovering and adapting to the cold, it’s good for me to get into the country to be inspired both for now and the months...
