Tonight - 7:30pm | Rpt Sunday, 17th March - 1:30pm
| This time last week, I was up to my mid shins in the pond renovation I was doing at my local primary school and I’m happy to say that the filming of this project with the students went really well. I can’t wait for you to see this project in an upcoming episode. And I know I mention it on a reasonably regular basis, but I absolutely love working with children and students and that’s exactly what I’ve been doing for the last few days! | | |
