Our boiler broke down yesterday afternoon so no hot water or central heating . The chap is supposed to be coming to look at it this afternoon. Fortunately we have an electric shower, and a gas fire in the living room if we need it, although it's not particularly cold at the moment (just windy).
Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Soil type: sandy, well-drained
Dragon's Den idea: Wifi cameras that alert your phone when a cat is detected. Cameras will be equipped with a loud speaker with selection of noises that scare cats that can be operated from your phone. Optional ballistic upgrades not recommended or endorsed.
AI can apparently be trained to identify animals so this tech can't be far away now.

@ViewAhead Cats can be kept indoors at night. They sleep about 20 hours a day unless they're feral or farm cats and have to hunt longer for their food. I'd hate to rely on AI so, if they can still be found, a water scarecrow would be a better solution to keep unwanted cats out of gardens.
I have just been to redeem my voucher at a big garden centre and OH treated me to an early Valentine's day gift. We've been maried 40 years and together 43 and this is a first but I'd taken a fancy to a Strobilanthes anisophylla Brunetthy. he label says hardy to -10C. The RHS site says +10C.

"The price good men (and women) pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men (and women)."
The iNaturalist website uses AI to help identify user's wildlife sightings. You'd be amazed how accurate that thing can be. It now has over 170million observations in its database. If you think about facial recognition capabilities now and how that can pick out faces in a large crowd of moving people then you probably don't need to worry about false IDs from Catcam™
