What's happened to that lady who used to post up daily about scam/fake accounts? I kind of relied on her to keep me informed. Not seen her for a good few days now.

The remains of the broccoli in blue cheese sauce will be turned into a posh soup for tomorrow's lunch. Cos I'm worth it. Oh and the ensuing flatulence won't bother anyone as there's only me who'll have to live with it.

All the children up our street have been on half term this week, and lucky for them the weather suddenly went really nice and mild a few days ago. But there is ZERO sound of any of them playing outside. ZERO. Child next door has literally spent all day playing some kind of shoot-em-up video game.

It's very Spring-like outside so I've been happily pottering in the greenhouse, planting up some violas, trimming dead bits off plants and encouraging them to do their best to revive and thrive. Bonsai is still in a sulk. Birds are very busy and loud. Both pond aerators buzzing madly. Saw Toad.

Fairly sick of the sight of simpering British politicians trotting over to America to talk down our country in front of a bunch of braying MAGA fascists If you don't like this Britain, why not go and live in your beloved Trump’s America. (AM I doing this right)

#RecipeOfTheDay is a particular joy: Beer-Braised Pork Knuckles with Apples and Potatoes! You’ll need to go to a butcher for the knuckles, but I don’t cook this with other cuts of pork. I dare say pork belly could be made to work if needs must, though www.nigella.com/recipes/beer...

Red = lowest ecological integrity. Ireland has the great honour of being probably *the* most ecologically trashed nation in all Europe. 🏆 🏆 🏆

Excellent - for those who don’t understand UK law around single sex spaces, this helps spell it out and puts NHS Fife in a position of having to disclose what they did - or rather didn’t do - when allowing a male bodied person into a female changing room www.equalityhumanrights.com/media-centre...

People need to get out of the mindset where every EU-UK negotiation is about "the UK giving the EU something" or "the EU giving us something". There are thousands of issues – all the way up to rejoining – where we become mutually better and stronger. It's not a contest, it's cooperation.

"Krasnov" recruited in 1987, Ivana and her family under close surveillance for yrs, a huge success for KGB. YUGE.

Well, turns out there’s another layer to his dubious background. According to independent journalist Jacob Silverman, Coristine is the grandson of Valery Martynov, a former KGB spy. Per Silverman’s research, Martynov was an officer in the technical espionage division… gizmodo.com/doge-staffer...

In an earlier column about the ongoing American Revolution, Henry coined the term "Coup Klax Klan" and now he gives us "Tsars and Stripes."

'Turgid'...tediously pompous and bombastic. Likely to be totally unaware of the quantity of turgidity pertaining to themselves.
