    These are photos of some of the work done at The English Armchair Abroad, showing the piece when it was delivered to me in all its glory and then after I've done the work. I think you will agree that even the most hopeless looking chair has surprising possibilities! Click on the thumbnail to enter the gallery.

A walk around the garden

Remember this back at the beginning of the year?

Not much going on as it was mid-winter but also because I told my dearly beloved that after the rabbit fiasco last year I wouldn't so much as look at it unless we had a decent fence all the way around.  He likes his home grown veg so I thought I was probably onto a winner!

I was and now we are making progress...

Onward around the garden and the flowers are really beginning to take off.  I love this time of year - so much promise and the hum of the bees everywhere.  Here's a selection:

Hopefully there will be more as the year progresses!

What a lovely garden! I left my lovely garden in Australia when I moved to New Zealand last November. I miss my homegrown veggies, my compost bins and my chickens

All about Me

  • It seems to me that this has to be the most boring part of a blog...who wants to know anyway? On the offchance here's the basics: I've been married to the same person for 26 years and counting...and don't want to change. I have (we have) three handsome boys: 21/19/14 We have lived in a wonderful part of France for the past 14 years Before that we lived on a boat and sailed not around the world but around as much of it as we could for three and a half years. Before that we lived a fairly predictable life in London I started upholstery in 2002 and have been registered to work as an upholsterer since 2007. It's something I love. Since the demise of my husband's toy business we have both had more time on our hands which we have filled with animals: bees, chickens, geese, ducks and a couple of weaners Life is good but we are not living the good life!
