For those of you who have not accessed this blog on twitter, I received the following photograph as a comment from the father of three of my grandchildren, with the caption 'Some Orchis italica for your Russian and French fans!' Thought you might like it too -
The rocky road to the success I used to be
I have now moved in a different direction with this blog, and am investigating the ideas which I developed in my career in horticulture. I shall entitle it 'The rocky road to the success I used to be'.
However, whilst doing that, let us not forget that this started out as a way of retaining my sanity while housebound for three years following an accident. I wrote the hilarious and deeply poignant story of my redemption in daily instalments of about a thousand words, for a period of nearly eighteen months. The first 117 chapters are now available as a Kindle book, readable on your Kindle device, your PC, iPad or Smartphone with an app. Please follow the link below to sample and purchase:

Also now published is Volume 2, 'A Long Three Months', comprising chapters 118-266.

And finally, Volume 3 is now available at the link below:

I have now removed all the original posts to make space for the future.
Thank you for reading. Having an audience is marvellous for focussing the mind. I am also working on some drawing projects which will take me away from the keyboard for a while, and I write other stuff too, which you can find popping up occasionally on my website https://nicolsonbrooks.com/. And I have my own little garden to look after. Keep looking in, though, as I have no idea what will land on the page, where it might come from, or when. You have all been invaluable to what has been produced so far.
