Welcome. It's Tuesday 6 January 2026.

We had more snow today! It was so pretty and fluffy but it did settle on the plot and made negotiating the slope a nightmare. It's melted away now but in the next few days we have a named storm coming in bringing with it a ton a rain. Always useful for topping up the water bowsers but not so good for getting any physical work done.

With that in mind, I've created a list of nine things I could be doing when it's not possible to work outside. Topics range from auditing last year's activities to double checking seed orders and sorting photos into proper albums. All very helpful things and those which really need doing on rainy/snowy days before spring arrives and everything goes to the wall.

I hope you find the episode interesting and that you'll come back and join me for the next episode - you're always very welcome.
