Meanwhile on Instagram...

Amazed how far this snail has climbed without spearing itself, though judging by where it was its demise could be near. A pause for a quick photo on the way into town at the weekend #snail #Chippenham #donkeyfield #weekendwalk #bramble #wildlife #vegplotting #vegplottingblog #snailsofinstagram

Beautiful day for a belated #birthday treat and trip to #Clevedon to walk on the only Grade I listed pier open to the public. So good to have a blow along to the end, feel the sun on our faces and marvel at how quickly the tide comes in at this place with the second highest tidal range in the world. Strange to think that this historic pier came so close to demolition and lovely to note from all the plaques mounted along the walkway how well loved this Victorian gem actually is. #happybirthdaytome #instasomerset #pier #lovemylife #seaside #simplethingsmakemehappy #vegplotting #vegplottingblog #100newthings #igerssomerset #visitsomerset #neverstopexploring

And now for something completely different! Producing samples for DNA and RNA analysis for a study looking into whether brain training can prevent or halt the effects of dementia. Not that I have dementia yet! The study is also looking at whether genetics plays a part, hence the samples. All this in memory of my mother in law who had vascular dementia xxx #clinicaltrials #dementia #dementiasucks #braintraining #DNA #dnatest #rna #spit #vegplotting #vegplottingblog #instagood #100newthings

Amazing how long you can live in a place and still not know all of its secrets! I wandered into a car park yesterday to find this laden persimmon aka Sharon fruit tree brightening up a dull January day. As well as the fruit, the tree has a pleasing shape and the most tactile bark. Until yesterday I didn’t know persimmons could be grown in the UK, though whether these are edible has yet to be tested 😉 #streettree #urbanforaging #exoticplants #persimmon #botanicalpickmeup #fruit #vegplotting #vegplottingblog #gdnbloggers #chippenham #igerswiltshire #timeforwiltshire #100newthings #tactile #gnarly #livingthemoment #lovingthemoment

A great start - in my view - to my #100newthings is this smart duvet cover I picked up in the January sales. A lot of people are posting about reusing and recycling existing items, but seeing the previous cover lasted well over 20 years, I couldn't resist this bargain. It also marks a shift away from clean geometrics to rich floral swirls. I wonder if @andrewtimothyob's tweet of Stanley from the Little Shop of Horrors may have influenced my choice slightly? #lovemylife #instainterior #floralart #floralfix #purple #simplethingsmakemehappy #vegplotting #vegplottingblog #duvetcover #duvetday #januarysales #gdnbloggers

Starting my first #100cookbooks journey with this winter minestrone recipe courtesy of @leonrestaurants' delightful Happy Soups. See my #cooksnotes below for the minor adaptations I made. The result? Scrummy and perfect for today's frosty weather. It's a hug in a bowl 🍜 😊 #cooksnotes - I omitted the celery and onion and doubled the carrot, leek and tomatoes because these are what I had to hand. I used some of the last of the Christmas ham and its smokiness made a real difference to the result and also meant no extra salt was needed. Oh and the kale was left out as well because hubby hates all things brassica. I found some little star shaped pasta to add some fun to the bowl and the extra tomato meant the final result served 6 rather than the 4 stated in the recipe. #soup #winterwarmer #winterwarmerfood #cooksofinstagram #soupoftheday #minestrone #minestronesoup #simplethings #lovemylife #vegplotting #vegplottingblog #littlethingsinlife #comfortfood #homecooking

This simple yet stylish idea is grabbing a lot of the attention over on the blog. People like its versatility as well as the fab #georgess18 items shown off on the grid. Kudos to the team who put this together, it's something I think works well both indoors and out.

I found lots of funky stuff in Londinium on Thursday - this flamingo cushion was the pick of my many faves at the #GEORGESS18 preview at the Swiss Church off Covent Garden. Trouble with the tube that day meant I had plenty of unexpected discoveries... more on that soon
