On a wet day in Dundee we visited the Macalpine Galleries which had reopened only a few days before after lockdown. The home of DC Thomson which produced Oor Willie and the Broons, the Dundee-based cartoon characters.

I didn’t expect to find this gardening book at all, and it has an actual wealth of advice for the garden. A calendar of what flowers when is useful indeed. If you can read Scots, even better!
