"Everybody says so".

Is there someone in my vast array of followers who enjoys cleaning and tidying?

I don't seem to be much good at it. I need one of those folk from the de-cluttering TV shows.

Preferably for the love of it, rather than wages.

One wonders how precise our cataloguing is if we haven't a vast body of citizen recorders out there.

I regularly watch a guy on Youtube who records species in his patch. There could be more people doing it.

How could we make this so?

It's culture war permanent anger stuff. Rather than work out and enact policies that will be beneficial to the majority of their citizens, they wish to keep you angry, ignore that they do little for you, and vote for them anyway.

After being in debates about conservation with bird watchers I think a lot of ppl like the idea of animals than looking after the animals themselves.

You might have heard the news about wildlife appearing on UK banknotes ... well ... I have a plan!! Thank you to Nick Cope for his wonderful Hugh (the hedgehog!) - have a read and a share and let's get hedgehogs where they belong!

Easy to get him in the dressing room injured or not.

It's black humour and First and Second World War aerial combat. A Booker nomination carries more weight than my recommendation yet I enjoyed his books.

Have you ever read Derek Robinson, author of Piece of Cake etc? Booker prize nominated, he's 93 now.

I'm not a fan, he has too much baggage and a tendency towards populism, but his party is doing well so someone is bound to 'unearth' all sorts of things about him.

Considering what a few of our politicians have been found to have done though, this is small fry. Yet it makes him look a buffoon.

The image shows a beaver sitting upright in a patch of lush, tall green grass. The beaver’s fur appears wet and shaggy, with darker brown tones on the back and lighter brown fur on the face. The beaver is positioned facing the camera and is holding its small front paws close to its chest. Its large, slightly orange-tinted front teeth are visible. A fallen tree branch extends diagonally behind the beaver, and the background is filled with dense green vegetation, including grass blades, leaves, and stems.

This Saturday (14 March) we’re sharing our love for beavers with the people of Birmingham via a large screen in Victoria Square. Join us between 10am and 4pm to watch incredible footage of these industrious rodents and learn why they are so important for healthy ecosystems.

I've noticed the front of the bee hotels have the caps nibbled so I'm assuming a lot of males have emerged.

I protected them from the wet weather and birds etc overwinter.

Females emerge a few weeks later I think.

sue them then

What's wrong with drinking water from your cupped hands?

Who do they Beaker folk think they are?

My Brexit-supporting friend denies the price of oil has gone up. I bet Paul Nuttalsl does too.

Not all ppl who vote one way are the same.

I know this, I'm not stupid.

There are some odd folk out there.

4% of Greens support Trump? Must be the ecologically-minded wingnuts akin to RFK jr.

I explained what would happen to a Brexit-voter.

After it happened, I reminded him what I'd said. It makes no difference. He still supports Brexit and Farage. He did turn against the Tories though. Same Tories that are in Reform now.

He'll never learn. Never.

Dated 2015?

Lovely. Better get those spuds in now to get frost damaged later.

Landmark study finds half of UK media reporting on Muslims contains bias A NEW report has found that almost a half of UK media coverage contains anti-Muslim bias ...

*Half* of all UK media reports about Muslims contain negative bias, according to a new study, together with widespread "sweeping generalisations".

"The highest rates were recorded by GB News (39%), The Telegraph (32%), Daily Express (24%), The Times (22%), The Sun (21%) and the Daily Mail (20%)"

There's a little pub I used to pass in Hull that must have had some inexpensive artisanal workers make it look great years and years ago. Ornate work.

It's on the Beverley Road, next to the listed cinema that was bombed during the war that still isn't repaired.

Boarded up now, I believe.

I hope it hurts the idiots that voted for him.

Shame it gets the one that didn't though.

I once dated a model from Milan btw. She was multilingual - spoke five languages. That was impressive.

She'll catch her death in that, skinny thing. She want's thermals on underneath and a big coat.

Wear a hat too, you lose a third of your heat through your head.

Blimey I'm glum.

I better go look at that guy that post cheering news!

It reminded me of when a school burned in Glasgow- the art school I think.

I hope they rebuild.

Bird flu is a zoontoic certainty isn't it?

At least we still have that. I wonder how many he'll kill again today?

Ah, but we'll be posting about him on social media whilst he does it.

Doomscrolling. How I hate it.

The United Kingdom, our once Great Ally, maybe the Greatest of them all, is finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East. That's OK, Prime Minister Starmer, we don't need them any longer -- But we will remember. We don't need people that join Wars after we've already won! President DONALD J. TRUMP

History lesson.

Our once great ally didn't come to our aid until 1917.

Our once great ally didn't come to our aid again until 1941.
