Just seen the news that Peter Vaughan-Clarke, who played Stephen in The Tomorrow People, has passed away. He was only 66. Gone too soon. A hoot on the DVD commentaries and chock full of irreverent stories. One of my first teen crushes too. Condolences to his family and friends. RIP.
Having watched this week’s Gardeners’ World we are now going to try and grow Korean mint (Agastache rugosa) from seed. Very pretty and good for the pollinators.
