1.1tonnes dropped off in 3 hours mate. I can't handle any more, I'm completely full. Sorry to disappoint!

It's "Wear your old band t-shirt to work day" today! Seems to be simplified to t-shirt day these days.
What shall I wear? Levellers? Pele? Pearl Jam? Men They Couldn't Hang? I think that's about it.

And this in Britain, where we apparently don't have freedom of speech!

I had better hurry up and watch the final episode of King and Conquerer before I hear from another source what happens.

BBC One - King & Conqueror

A clash that defined the future of a country – and a continent – for a thousand years.

By a factor of 5, I'd say. All the British flags are adorning lampposts in southern England

10 years ago it'd be wall to wall Union Flag, now it's mostly EU/Council of Europe flags

Fabulous stuff. A bit quieter in your house then! Been doing the University stuff here too

Good call, there's probably a Greg's there too

Drove 200 miles across Yorkshire (Scarborough) and back today.
Total of flags in unusual positions:
White Rose 3
George Cross 2
Union Flag 1

Make of that what you will.

I appear to be bingewatching BBC Gardeners World.

Heading down to Devon for a few days with Second born to see brother and family. Looking forward to a good drive, hopefully Mavis's aircon will work.

Okay, nine washes should do it.

'Udders Orchard Cider 🍎 🍏 @uddersorchardcider.bsky.social · Jul 22

Yep, they are!
Cheers for all the responses.

A fine haul from @vinyltaprecords.bsky.social utilising family gifted birthday record vouchers and cash.

So Trumpington is heading here in September. Is there a demo being organised? Will the baby blimp be raised?

Awesome stuff today on @bbcradio6musicbot.bsky.social . Back to 1994, reminding me of pootling around the lanes of Lincolnshire in my Ford 8210 listening to Atlantic 252 on the dodgy push button wireless. The only thing missing is Mark and Lard!

It's worth a try. We've had a great crop despite dramatically thinning them last year, and it's been blimey-charlie hot here!

Whilst the wife's away the cats will sit, sneering at me as I destalk millions and millions of redcurrants.

Redcurrant harvest time.
