Titz Towers, North Notts

I've heard there has been a decline in the butterfly population, so that's a lovely thing to do. I used to read, make dens, go out to Sherwood Forest, annoy my brother

Aw have fun with the caterpillars. I love them. I lovingly cultivate a small nettle patch for the red admirals. This means I get lots of caterpillars and they often have their chrysalis' hanging from my walls and window sills. I love watching them. It's amazing how fast they morph.

Have been crabbing twice this week with my little one! Cheap, easy entertainment. He would love to watch the caterpillars transform. Nice when they still get excited by simple things :0)
