An Old-Fashioned Girl at Heart

Day 138 - 11:36am, 19 May 2019

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have released pictures of them playing with their two boys at the feature garden the Duchess has helped to design at the Chelsea Flower Show. On the one hand, the photos are lovely and sweet. It's a miniature woodland, with a jaw-dropping tree house, a rope ball swing and stream. The aim is to encourage more young families to explore and enjoy the outdoors. It is beautiful and no doubt restorative, though with the crowds that throng at Chelsea, maybe less relaxing than if you were to come upon it unannounced. 

I love the Water of Leith for its nooks and crannys, it has all the excitement, beauty and glimpses of wildlife that any family would want. There's no fancy tree house or preinstalled rope swing, just good old-fashioned nature, how it was meant to be.
