Short term, live with it.
Long term, gypsum, lime and/or lots of organic material.

Met his brother when he was CEO of Avery Berkel and I was a lowly programmer for Waitrose. Was a thoroughly good bloke and very interested in what we were up to.

In that case that's better. I'm obviously no good at perspective

One of my churches had Anglo-Saxon work until the Victorian improvements.

I'm Gary and it looks terrible to me because I can't see any protection from the cars. A nice elevated bike lane would be better.

Yeah I was at about 50% in 1200, and I've picked up a bit of Flemish over the years.

People sometimes ask me if I have always been a vicar. To which I always reply that I used to be a child.

So far my attempts to make Staffordshire oat pancakes have been disastrous. With eight pancakes worth of ingredients, I've achieved three over-thick pancakes that disintegrated. And one near-perfect attempt that also disintegrated.
But I am full of pancake. So every cloud.

I guess the question I'm asking myself is, "why?"

Don't forget the batteries. Otherwise you'll get people pointing out that solar doesn't work at night.
Wind does, of course.

It's no coincidence the first advert I saw on this ludicrous article was an IQ test. I presume if you fail, you get to read the whole article?

Who hasn't done that? It was the only way to get a roast in one pub I knew.

Unfortunately it's that time of year when all sorts of bugs wake up in churches and find they can't get out.
