We can’t afford to weaken National Park protections ⚠️

But there are rumours that some in Westminster want to remove the Protected Landscapes duty - the only real power to secure action for nature

We can't let 30 years of campaigning go down the drain

In the spring, Stanmer Woods is alive with bluebells and wild garlic adorning the paths.

However, once #SpookySeason rolls in, it becomes something darker and foreboding.

Credit to photographer Finn Curry for capturing the woodland at its most eerie and haunted.

THESE beekeepers are
hypocrites. They're always
banging on about how we must
save the bees because they're so
important, and then they go and
open up a hive, create a smoke
screen and steal all their food. It's
an odd way of caring if you ask me.

A foolhardy attempt to catalogue everything about #Dartmoor ? Or a commendable quest for knowledge? Only time will tell 🤣 ... visit the new website at ourdartmoor.co.uk
It's very much a work in progress ... please feel free to make suggestions for inclusion in the directory 😍

Were you eating a bag of chips? 😀 I made the mistake of eating some crisps on Ferring seafront a few weeks back and got mobbed by several seagulls.

I watched your blu-ray of this last week, it's one of the best transfers for a film of that era that I've seen. It looks gorgeous.

The fortune offered by publishers helped bring Holmes back too. To try and deflect publishers demands for more Holmes stories, he raised the price to discourage them but they were willing to pay the sums he asked. Kerching.

This is my favourite film or TV production of The Hound, a great cast and very atmospheric.
