Fridges don't need to do this. They just need to do heat exchange and keep things cold, consistently.

Lots of colour being provided by the Farm Shop in Ludlow this year again. White poppies and purple borage for the last 2 years, and looks like canola(?) this year. Yet to see anything else. #Shropshire #Farm #Farming #Crops #Ludlow #Photo #Landscape #ShropshireAONB

I was sitting on the platform at Shrewsbury Station this afternoon, wondering whether or not this train stopped at Ludlow... No destinations were displayed, but a lot of other stuff... FW revision? Display resolution? IP Address? MAC Address? #Train #Railways #Bug #Crash #Shrewsbury #Shropshire

Had breakfast in a strange cafe with what looks like a traffic black hole / portal outside. 😂 Cars appearing and disappearing all over the place! #Cafe #traffic #portal #blackhole #mirror #shropshire #uk #breakfast

Audlem.. Passed a chap, walking his ferret on a lead . Shropshire life....

Andrew Tate has been charged with rape, human trafficking, controlling prostitution and actual bodily harm. Nigel Farage described him as "an important voice for young men". That tells you all you need to know about Farage's moral compass.

Here is Llech Idris in Meirionnydd. Over 3m tall, so couldn’t quite reach to scan the top. I think it looks quite Orcadian - similar in shape to Stones of Stenness, but not as tall. It’s a good’un though. #BeenScanningAgain

So here's some photos from the first visit of the year to one of our lovely nature reserves here in South Shropshire. Dragonflies, damselflies and a waterboatman. #Shropshire #Wildlife #Nature #Photography #Macro #Insects

Meanwhile in a sleepy Shropshire town... This appeared in a shop window. 😡 A framed copy of the 'Rivers of blood' speech and a photo of the MP who delivered it in 1968. Trump, Farage, et al. are responsible.😡

Rose deserves better. I’m grateful she trusted me To tell her story.

Wonder what it's like to live in a country that isn't obsessed with demonising migrants and trans people and has a normal media...

A bit worried this morning to find ZOMBIES in town this morning! 😲 (It was a hastily taken photo as I have more important things to do) 😂 #Photography #MiniFigures #Zombie #MessingAbout #ScaleModel

The highest point in Shropshire, Brown Clee Hill, visible in the background of this photo of a brilliant yellow oilseed rape field in Corvedale. #Shropshire #Photo #photography #landscapephotography #nature #farming #landscape #spring #countryside

Surely the question isn’t simply ‘What is a woman?’… it’s more ’Why has any ability to live and let live been lost if no one is being (disproportionately) threatened or harmed?’ Miscreants and predators don’t come in transgender form… they come in people form. My two penn’orth. 🤷‍♂️

Should we, in the UK, be trusting all of our NHS data to Palantir? That's the same Palantir whose Chairman is Peter Thiel. This poster is apparently being displayed outside several US Universities. #NHS #Data #Security

As this sewage scandal drags on and on, company executives are pocketing eye-watering bonuses and customers face spiralling bills. We must clean up our wild-west water industry and stop the sewage dumping for good.

When you live in an age where George W. Bush’s time as President is perceived (incorrectly) as relatively safe, sane and benign… you know the planet has jumped the shark. 😱

This is when it should’ve ended.

So far, it’s been a very dry Spring in the UK. What do you know about the water firms, who have given untold billions to their shareholders rather than prevent our rivers and seas being clogged with sewage? They haven’t built any reservoirs. They’ll be rationing water later in the year.

So much blossom on the pear tree outside the house, and so many bees! Very nice to see. #Spring #Bees #PearTree #Shropshire #nature #naturephotography

Apparently, according to a report by 404media, the ICE database in the US was created by PALANTIR. That's the same business that has a £330m contract to handle NHS data. Worrying? www.404media.co/inside-a-pow... #ICE #Palantir #NHS #data #privacy
