Why does “We need a shared culture and values” never get called out as obvious bullshit? Politicians of all stripes say it, but it’s an impossibility. What we need is respect for the fact other people will have different cultures and values, underpinned by a decent legal system.

I wish you joy of it. From memory, it was worse than Commando but better than Red Heat. Also, that forward grip and perforated barrel extension on the MP5 looks like it could be problematic with actual live ammo?

I saw this at the cinema on release. It was terrible BUT

I’ll kill everything you love.

The Hobbit: The Bollocks of the Five Armies.

Legit…

I’ve never seen Top Gun. Pretty comfortable with that.

How to establish wildflowers in part to full-shade (part one) With no weeding, watering or ground preparation

Weekend reading on how I’m establishing wildflowers in shade to part shade without any weeding, watering or preparation www.wildway.info/p/how-to-est...

Weirdly, it comes out to play when I’m off playing silly buggers in the woods…

Whinge? Did I ever mention how I broke my leg..?

Cinnamon is the devil’s spice, Mike, this is a law of thermodynamics.

Quite so…

No, no there is not, and this is what I find most *baffling*….

A tiny hovercraft used for scientific research on restored peatlands.

Some kind of wolf spider?

To whom are we no longer being polite?

Weirdly, although my nearest league side was Bradford Bulls (née Northern), my dad took us to watch Featherstone Rovers (never married), 30 miles away.

League or union?

Age yourself with a film you saw in the cinema as a kid.

UK's first rice crop ripe for picking after hot summer Paddy fields are thriving in a quiet part of east England and might help feed us in the future.

As the planet heats, liveable climate niches shift north. We can adapt to manage these movements in crops, families, expertise, human activity… as I explain in #NomadCentury

I had no idea that the origin of that slogan was the persecution of the Cathars…

It’s only cheating if there are rules…

Classic geodesicdome!

tbh, I bought this as a plant from a (peat-free) nursery rather than growing from seed. It’s awesome, though.

It’s a pretty mint, alright. And you know all those <insert unlikely thing like orange or chocolate> mints that that smell of <unlikely thing like orange or chocolate> but taste just like mint? This actually tastes a bit different. And is pretty.

Also, the Thai mint is *so* pretty; look at the purple edges to the leaves!

I’m sure that’s what everyone says about me…

Yeah, I just started growing it so that it don’t have to muck about when I need some.

Most mints are a piece of piss to grow and are perennial. I grew my Thai basil from seed, so will try to get some seedlings up indoors for winter.

Oh, from my garden. Asian supermarkets will sell it.
