We’re Talking Garden Furniture #GetTheGarden
Come the warmer weather, we all want to be eating outside, don’t we?But where to sit, that’s often the problem. That old furniture that’s seen you through the last ten summers is looking a bit tired, a bit wobbly… and you probably grit your teeth every time you lower yourself gingerly into it and hope it’s still going to hold up… Or maybe you’ve got a few of those cheap white plastic chairs...
The Fatboy Headdemock. Oh yeah baby.
I’ve come across a weird thing. The Fatboy headdemock. NO, I didn’t know either. I mean, everyone knows Fatboy and their entirely awesome range of bean bags, but what the fark is a Headdemock? Well, dear reader, allow me to enlighten you, and make your day better. It’s a hammock. But not just any old hammock. Oh noes. Typical Fatboy in its extravagantly large design, the Headdemock easily has room for...
Qualcast Self Propelled Petrol Rotary Key Start Lawn Mower Review
Blue loves a bit of long grass… I am not known for my lawn mowing prowess. In fact, since The Finger Incident (it’s a long tale … but basically I stuck my hand into a lawnmower. While it was running.

Magic – Finding Garden Storage Space. No, really… #GetTheGarden
With the burst of warm weather, we all start meandering outside for longer and longer, don’t we? But initially it’s a bit depressing – just how exactly does the garden get so untidy while we’re all snugged up by the fire for a few months? And it’s always NOW that we start thinking that this is the year we’re really going to get to grips with the garden – not just cut the grass, but create some...
Okay, we’re starting with the garden storage… #SpringMakeover
Over the next few weeks we’ve a series of features around freshening up the house and garden; a sort-of spring cleaning. Although I was listening to the radio this week and learned that Spring Cleaning came about when the winter’s coal fires were done, and houses needed scrubbing from top to bottom to rid them of the coal dust and smoke. All hail gas central heating, that’s all I can say! But the house and garden do...
