Escaping the daily workstation in the house for the greenhouse workstation is a real pleasure that I look forward to. I try to get out of the house regularly to get my dose of Vitamin D and shake the emails and figures from my mind.

I have a cloth soaked in engine oil (actually oil from our little aeroplane – a Piper J3 Cub – we owned a long time ago) and I wrap my secateurs in this to stop rust forming on the blades.
