    What are we doing in the garden 2026

    Sowed some chillies as the ones that we hoped would survive overwintering without the greenhouse didn't quite make it. :sad: Five months outside was a bit too much for them.

    Great news. I lived in East Lothian and moved to the South Coast and the advice I get here is completely different from when I lived in Scotland.

    Late afternoon visit from a Sparrowhawk which looks like a new young male, no bigger than a Collared Dove. Fortunately it didn't catch anything.
