Oh, right ho. Really? I thought it was all down to cloud seeding, and arsonists. Or maybe just El Starmer again.

Grow it but give it away to the hundreds of new friends that will miraculously appear.

Dame Maggie Smith obituary: A piercing presence on stage and screen WWW.BBC.CO.UK One of Britain's best loved performers who was as much at home with comedy as with drama. A giant of an actress. RIP Maggie.

Yep, getting and tending a garden, or any patch of land, has to be one of the best ways to get yourself rooted to a place.

Sounds like there were a few fair weather APFers! 😜 The rain on the Saturday was nothing really: barely more than drizzle for half an hour, with 5 mins of light rain, then it was all over. Nothing like we've had over the last 24 hours in the Midlands.

Fantastic. I've never seen one of them flowering before. Are you sure it's a Bread plant though, looks like a Cheese plant, a Monstera.

Just been reminded of this catchy little ditty, or annoying earworm, depending on perspective.

Prescribing nature for human health. Trees, green spaces etc.

Thanks, not heard of that, I'll give it a listen as well. It all comes down to numbers then. Fractals get a mention in that first talk. @Macpherson - you'll find it interesting if you're still around. It's not just having a green and tree'd vista to look at, the exact fractal dimension of it also plays a part. Apparently. -

Are there buyers for red cedar?
sime42 replied to Calvados's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
You could probably sell it to Chainsaw Carvers. Minimal processing required, just whole trunks cut to length. Saw this at the APF at the weekend.

On that note. There were plenty of Mullets there. Good show, but too many annoying little spiders and too many Mullet boys! I was there on the Saturday and it was quite quiet, especially in the afternoon. It was definitely smaller than previous years, though I did miss the 2022 one. There used to be a big circuit that went up the hill, then around through the wood and back down again. .

So I listened to/watched this earlier. Trees get a lot of mention, not surprisingly, so I thought it's worth sharing it on here incase anyone is interested in such things. Trees in the urban environment, planning, the importance of green spaces etc etc. Plus a lot more besides. It confirms what a lot of us probably already suspected. It's nice to see it backed up by what seems like quite rigourous scientific research. It could be brushed off as touchy feely hippy stuff otherwise. I'd not heard of the woman before, but I was very impressed with her. Kathy Eallis. She deals with the subject in a very no-nonsense manner. Turns out that she is a life peer, with a long list of qualifications and experience in the field.

The religion of food really is the only true religion. I'd give the Tuna fatty chunk a go certainly. The Sea Urchin though, really? Doesn't it just taste incredibly fishy? I've seen it on menus and tables in Greece, but never plucked up courage to try it. The father in law is partial to fish eyes, a sought after delicacy apparently.
