Occasional lurker here, from the Great White North. It's been a very long time since I lived in ED (although I insist on at least a day there when I'm in the UK). We also went from Ed to Kent (not far from Claire C actually) and still spend a week in Tenterden any chance I get, but Canada is once again home.


I don't think I'll ever stop checking in on this forum, although the cast of characters gets less and less familiar there is still a thread of the life I had there. It's a funny thing to leave a place with a bit of your heart still there.....


I still miss Peckham Rye park every single day.

I sadly miss lots of things that at the time I didn't really appreciate. Moving away has really made me realise how lucky I was. I now have the sea nearby, a more relaxed way of life, a less competitive outlook - but if I could afford it I'd move back in a flash.

    • How to you grow these? I've scattered meadow flower seeds many a time, but thistles don't take and I doubt if alder and birch is common round here.  Teasels pop up now and then, but even if they are self seeding usually don't see them the next year.  It was nice seeing the gold finches feeding off these when I do have them.  I do let the dandelions grow but not sure I've seen finches feeding off them.  I understand they are a great source of nectar for bees, butterflies and the like. On a related subject my lawns have changed greatly over the last couple of decades, warmer wetter winters, springs, earlier springs, droughts in the summer.  Moss and brambles thrive....
    • Sadly true though. I've just replenished my (clean)  feeders and put out suet blocks and logs. Now I'm waiting for the pigeons and squirrels to descend 🤣
    • https://butterandcrust.com/pages/home-u2 Adding that in case I'm not the only person who didn't know what they deliver! Now I know, sadly I'm not really into "artisan breakfast goods", not do I want to double my weight 🤣 I'm considering using a fruit and veg delivery service again, because I don't eat enough veg these days. I used to use Oddbox, but the quality deteriorated badly unfortunately (it was always wonky etc veg, which was fine, but I think they must have changed their sources or their quality control or something).
    • Yup, not bad at all! Delivery wasn't sharp on time, but given its done by bike it was overall a great service. I was also refunded right away for applejuice which smelled like it had gone off. Happy customer here.
