But then I visited one. & I'm no longer so sure.
So, with the world facing future food crises, here's a thread on the most interesting thing to happen to farming in a long time...

A majority of top jobs in the UK go to former public school pupils who are 7% of all pupils.
They are not at public schools because they represent the top 7% of all UK pupils so I suggest this is bad for Britain and we don’t use the best of all talents.

Rugby - the only way that Tier 2 nations can develop and be self-sufficient is to allow them to be promoted, as of right, to the top two tournaments in global rugby. Whether it is every 1,2, or 3 years and whether by playoff, etc, can be agreed, but the automatic right by winning is the point.

It's been snowing in the UK and the road gritters are out in force, begging the question:
