  1. Tamarind is the dogs bollox, it makes any curry taste amazing. Go easy on the fenugreek, unless you particularly like the smell. It can make its presence known in your sweat for days afterwards!
  2. Bugger. Should've gone for the c rather than g. Wordle 1,045 X/6 🟨⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜🟩🟨⬜ ⬜⬜🟩⬜🟩 ⬜⬜🟩🟨🟩 ⬜🟩🟩⬜🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩
  3. Looking forward to seeing a Chick Satay then tomorrow.
  4. Pork Vindaloo. Banging!
  5. With or without bagpipes? Don't ask too much, being happy would be a enough for starters.
  6. Do you think the fossil fuel industry is feeling threatened by the shift to sustainable energy? Looks like it. β€˜Privileged access’: pro-plastic lobbyists at UN pollution talks increase by a third | Plastics | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM Fossil fuel and petrochemical campaigners at Ottawa summit outnumber scientists, EU and Indigenous delegates
  7. Do we get to see your happy dance now? 😜
  8. Thanks for that. It looks like a great source of useful knowledge. Also, the guy seems to do videos on lots of other stuff, not just fruit tree pruning. Nice.

  10. I can't claim too much credit though. Lady Luck looked kindly on me on line two.

  14. Wordle 1,042 4/6 🟨⬜🟨🟩⬜ 🟨⬜🟨🟩🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Not as rapid as I thought it was going to be.
  15. Yeah, that is rather disturbing isn't it? WTF? Mind you, the look of Stephen Hendry now is almost as bad.
  16. So the rain has finally eased off this week, but it's just so fcking cold. I'm sure it was warmer two months ago.
  17. Trust Insurance is a good place to start. They're a good company, and always get a mention on here. They have a scheme where the premium you pay is directly related to your turnover, so ideal for small and just starting out businesses. If it's just yourself, and no climbing work the PL and PI should be all you need I'd think. You can do a course for anything these days, but the only thing that might be worth you doing imo is a basic chainsaw course. CS30/31 in old money, you'll have to look up the new name. Good luck.
  18. Though after reading this, maybe not. "The flavour of dandelion and burdock seems to follow a bell curve of: too sweet, horrible, really rather nice, horrible, poisonous – with the 'quite nice' occurring at the 3–4 week point and extendable by keeping it in the fridge." Dandelion and burdock beer | River Cottage WWW.RIVERCOTTAGE.NET Dandelion and burdock roots, being perennial, are available all year, but it is important to collect them only when the...
  19. I'm sold on the idea. Half! Quite intrigued to try brewing some root beer.
  20. Wordle 1,041 5/6 ⬜⬜⬜🟨🟩 ⬜🟨⬜⬜🟩 ⬜🟨⬜⬜🟩 ⬜🟨⬜🟨🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Random desperate guesses there produced a couple of words that I've never seen before. They should do a UK English version.
  21. I'm not a fan of dandelions, they're towards the far end on the good plant to annoying weed scale. What's so good about them? Got to admire their tenacity and prowess at reproduction though. They'll be one of the survivors in the barren wasteland that's left in a few years I'm sure. So children love them, (blowing the "clocks" and stuff), and you can make wine out of the flowers. I have fond memories of picking them with my grandad as a child, running around in a sea of bright yellow. Plus eating the leaves has a diuretic effect, (if that was what one wanted), hence the French name for them. What else is in their favour? Anything to do with the long tap root drawing stuff up from the depths?
  22. Was that an act of horticultural sabotage by "someone"?
  23. Some nice examples there. Interesting to see the steel bars in that hollow trunked Plane. Are they meant to be structural aids?
  24. Mate, I was only trying to engage you in a reasonable discussion on a hot topic that should be in the news, in keeping with the title of this thread. Even with your plain diet, surely you must eat some fruit and grains/seeds/pulses.
