#Sleeper closed the Inbetweener Tour @concorde2.bsky.social last night, pure 90s magic.

#LouiseWener had the crowd in the palm of her hand. Been counting down to this one for months, and it was worth every minute.

Britpop legend Louis Eliot warming up the crowd @concorde2.bsky.social

Until recently, I wasn’t aware of Rialto. But it’s safe to say they now have a new fan.

What a night! #Echobelly brought a high energy set to Chalk in Brighton that had the crowd buzzing from start to finish.

#SonjaMadan stage presence was magnetic.

Great set from #Babybird at Chalk in Brighton last night.

The whole room sang You’re Gorgeous like it was 1996.

🍂 The nursery is bursting with colour right now!

One of the true standouts this autumn is Euonymus alatus ‘Compactus’ also known as the Fire Bush 🔥

Perfect for adding a splash of colour to the garden as the temperatures start to drop.

Ripley’s got one mission today: protect the ball at all costs… even if it means zoomies around the house at 100 mph.

Lily beetle spotted this morning. Bright red and eye-catching, but a real menace to lilies and fritillaries. Keep an eye out for them on your plants!

Delivery day at the NEC! This morning I dropped off a full lorry load of incredible teak animals for Art by Nature at Grand Designs Live 🦍🦁🐴

Always great being part of something creative at big events like this.

The leaves are starting to turn, the mornings are getting chilly, and everything feels a little slower around the nursery.

Sometimes, you don’t need to go far to see the season change, you just need to stop and look around. 🍂

European garden spider (Araneus diadematus) also known as the cross orb-weaver.

Common in the UK at this time of year, often spotted sitting in the centre of its web. A harmless and important predator of flies and other insects.
