One of the main advantages of having your own vegetable garden is being able to eat fresh vegetables right out of your own garden without going to the shop where much of the vegetables are shipped from hundreds of miles away. <a href="http://www.thankyourgarden.com" rel="nofollow">Lara</a><br />Anaya Shaikhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12560598628874064254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3410197881114403536.post-40034579628354970802017-10-07T08:08:37.497+13:002017-10-07T08:08:37.497+13:00I do like this!I do like this!davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05230278499323443114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3410197881114403536.post-47735001012222282272017-09-03T10:33:31.232+12:002017-09-03T10:33:31.232+12:00What a touching story Anne.

And given how early most of us had babies then, his attitude would of course have neatly kept pretty much all of us out. Interesting that your overseas post-doc made no difference - those were the days when they were intent on hiring British chaps with UK degrees.AnneEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00869114756713316204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3410197881114403536.post-36310263468420235252016-05-07T16:30:50.262+12:002016-05-07T16:30:50.262+12:00This comment has been removed by the author.AnneEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00869114756713316204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3410197881114403536.post-44024429198539230632016-05-07T16:30:49.848+12:002016-05-07T16:30:49.848+12:00This comment has been removed by the author.AnneEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00869114756713316204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3410197881114403536.post-26781223368538370702016-05-07T16:30:23.110+12:002016-05-07T16:30:23.110+12:00Yes, a huge impact.

I remember trying to get back into the English Dept to teach after having a baby & being on a post doctoral scholarship overseas. I was offered only the tutoring that I had done as a PhD student; an academic career was no longer possible. Someone told me the HOD was against women working if they had babies. In the end, I was free to develop creatively and it was probably a good thing, but I remember feeling thwarted at the time.Juliethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01542985048406828693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3410197881114403536.post-51177946078575840102016-05-07T16:00:48.872+12:002016-05-07T16:00:48.872+12:00What a big impact these losses must have made in s...What a big impact these losses must have made in small communities.
