Partial index of blog posts

I realised eventually that I did not continue to update this after 2016 – apologies!  I was out watching my garden grow!

I worked for years as a secretary and administrator and it must be the inner-administrator in me – I want to make things neat and tidy and easy to find.  WordPress has tags and categories which can be used to look round a blog; however these rely on the author’s decision about what to tag / categorise and that can be a bit inconsistent.  And then there is the ever increasing list of posts in chronological order along the side of the blog which I think are a bit awkward to use as you have to look at each month individually to even read the titles which makes it hard to locate specific things of interest.

So here – with hyperlinks to take you to the posts mentioned – is a list in chronological order with the most recent first:
