Ground is too hard to dig for naturalizing bulbs. Moved onto the next bed. Sliced through a hyacinth (already shooting), 2 alliums and dug up a handful of crocus this morning.
I am quite literally unplanting for spring. I look forward to the desolate wasteland I'm creating at great effort.Â
Annoyed at the recycling collection today. My glass box hasn't been emptied because they spilled a couple of plastic bits from the other box in with it and couldn't be bothered to pick them out again. They've slapped a massive non-recyclable plastic tag on my bin saying it's my fault. I bet it took longer to write the label and fit it to the bin than it would to sort the contents. There's no local glass collection bins anymore either so unless I fancy booking a time slot at the tip an hour's round trip away I'm stuck with it. And they wonder why they spend so much money cleaning up fly tipping
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
Does anyone remember the days when we thought computers would make life easier? A password was only used by The Secret Seven. You never had to prove that you weren't a computer. When you dialed a number on your trimphone, a real person answered.😵
...you thought a real person answered.....but the world has been controlled by computers for millenia and you're in a virtual reality game....Sorry to give the game away.
"I'm getting rid of all my plastic (insert as appropriate) and I'm going to get entirely sustainable ( insert as appropriate) stuff" Â So. I'm going to send all my unsustainable stuff to landfill so that I can impress my friends with my eco friendly carbon negative footprint credentials. The most eco friendly thing to do is to use the plastic stuff you have already got and pass it on to your children and grandchildren and great great grandchildren.
Our holiday to Crete was cancelled due to Boris putting them on the naughty step. Flights transferred to next year but lost the deposit on the accommodation. They are still open and didn't have a hope in hell of reletting in 3 days. Not a problem, claim back of the travel insurance. Just had notification that they have paid out, minus excess times 2 because myself and the missus would have been occupying. If I'd been travelling alone the accommodation cost would have been the same but only one excess charge. Not impressed but not surprised with the attitude insurers have to wriggling out of any payment if they can.
