From All Consuming to Laundry Baskets; taking in Nature and Michael Jackson along the way.

(There is a linking thread in this post somewhere, I’m just too exhausted to draw it out.)

However hard I tried I couldn’t get All Consuming to accept that I had read anything since The Earth and Middlemarch (and boy does that seem like ages ago) Or rather it acknowledges Life isn’t all Ha Ha Hee Hee and The Woman in White here but will not transfer the info to my sidebar. So have disabled it for the time being and will be updating my sidebar all on my own. (Now watch it crash!)
Have been inspired by Springwatch to do something with the balcony. The BBC have a great site called Breathing Space where you can tap in the size of your space (balcony, yard, small garden etc) and how much time you have to spend, and it then comes up with all sorts of ideas to get you started. Glad to see that we already do at least one of the suggestions (bird feeder stuck to the window) and in the summer my Mum usually gives us a tomato plant and a few pots of herbs. This year I’m thinking window box and bird bath.
I came home from the Car Boot Sale at the weekend with My First Nature Book, so you never know I might even get some help. (I also treated myself to the most wonderful laundry basket in the world ever, it is so great that I almost dedicated a whole post to my new laundry basket but then thought better of it)
Whilst writing this I have learned that Michael Jackson is NOT guilty after all. I actually have no idea what he does (or doesn’t) do to children in his spare time but I sure as hell know that the Man makes my face hurt every time I look at him.
