I was thinking about this earlier while cleaning up and pretending I'm on a show to give my tuppence worth about something I'm a specialist in. I think I would go with skincare as I've done so much reading over the years I'd say I'm fairly well knowledgable. What would yours be and for what reason?

@Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g that sounds good but I should have said insects rather than wildlife, I have murdurous cats so don't want to encourage small fluffy things they could kill!

@CornedBeef451 I would suggest get the book I mentioned by Dave Goulson the garden jungle (or gardening to save the planet). He has so many ideas to help wildlife from a meadow garden to a camomile lawn.

Best of luck.

The role of the (usually) unpaid female helper in Noel Streatfeild's children's fiction. It fascinates me and I've thought about it a lot.

I’d love to hear that.
