The have been grown by nature for decades and can now be enjoyed by yourself and all the creatures that care to habit these creations, they are ash but we’re not removed from their previous Home for ash dieback reasons I'm not so sure that they'll get what they want for them.

By way of a follow up. This is the apple tree I ruthlessly cut back last year. It's obviously completely out of shape now, since I had to cut so much out, but what remains is now covered in blossom and new shoits. With no signs of blossom wilt/brown rot or whatever the affliction was. Yet. We'll see how the fruit look in a few months.

I'd say so, yes. English or Common Walnut.

My brother kept an Avocado tree going for years. 10 of so. He kept it in the poly tunnel over winter then moved it out in summer. The extremities used to die back each time, almost back to the base a couple of times, but he'd just cut the dead off and it would sprout back with vigour. Then one spring it never came back. I think he watered it too much over winter, or it was a particularly cold one.

It's all in the Art of the Deal. It's all this guy's fault of course. Donald Trump attacks Jerome Powell for not cutting interest rates WWW.BBC.CO.UK The US president says Jerome Powell's "termination" as central bank chair "cannot come fast enough!"

That was middle of the day so I had to forgo the Port!

Can you smell it from there? It's smoked Stilton. Devine.

Signs have been used only a couple of times, and the extension pole not much more. All in perfect condition. I'm needing to make some space so not looking to make any money at all. So if anyone local wants them they're FREE! I much prefer Local Collection only as postage might be a ball ache.Ask for price

"Her attempt to create her own social media platform follows in the footsteps of Trump’s Truth Social, operated by the Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG). Investing in TMTG became a means by which individual investors showed their support for the US president. TMTG lost $400.9m (£303.5m) last year."

I know people used to feed them on an organised basis. I remember camping at a place in Mid Wales about 15 years ago, it was also a Red Kite feeding centre. That must have been back around the time they were reintroduced there. I'm sure they don't need feeding now, based on the numbers of them, but maybe some individuals do.

Red Kites are moving or enlarging their range. We saw one in Worcestershire for the first time at the weekend. Tussling with a Buzzard. Magnificent birds close up.

Talking of Liz Truss. We've got our very own Trumpette to look forward to this summer. She plans to free us all from the "deep state" by promoting free speech and truth. Thanks Liz. Does anyone take Trump’s Truth Social, seriously? I can never get past the massive irony of the name. Liz Truss to launch ‘uncensored’ social network to counter mainstream media | Liz Truss | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM Former PM says she wants to protect free speech after being ‘cut off at the knees’ by ‘the elite’ while at No 10 At least Richie had the decency to quietly disappear from the public eye.

Thanks for the advice. I was reading about bird vandalism earlier. Also, my mum was thrilled a couple of years ago when she noticed that she had a woodpecker as a frequent visitor to the garden. Until she realised that it was only coming to peck the grubs out of the bee box! I've had a couple of other boxes for years now and they've never suffered the same fate oddly. I'm primed to deploy some netting if any birds ever get any designs though. Got the Salvias, Nasturtiums and Marigolds covered already.

I'm no fan of organised religion, of any flavour, (especially Catholicism) but I feel this is a sad loss to the world. He was one of the few forces for good out there at the moment. He brought a lot of ground breaking, good things, into the Catholic Church. I just hope his successor is as liberal.

I've been past there a few times.

He's all heart isn't he? Such benevolence always.
