These so-called "Influencers" keep popping up in print and social media. They don't influence me as I've never heard of them. The latest was a woman called Zanna Lee who was in a photo on yesterdays Times front page along with a Chelsea Pensioner in an article relating to the Chelsea Flower Show. Out of curiosity, I googled the lass's name and I'm no wiser other than she has a business in beauty products.

It begs the questions such as what defines an Influencer, who decides if they fit the title, how do you become one and do they make any money out of it?

14C and pouring down since late morning. The rain is actually welcome as I sowed beans and transplanted leek seedlings yesterday

Raining steadily at the moment but heavy rain is forecast for later on. At least I don't have to go out and water mmy plants.

Same here. The trouble is I feel cold enough to put the c/heating on, despite already putting a winter cardigan on 

Spent a good hour trying to get me petrol tiller going today, stripped it down, cleaned etc and it just don't wanna play.

It's like a right of passage  Don't forget to pass it on to the next person so they too can experience the joy of pulling the cord for longer than they need to use it.
