  1. I can't be the only person who uses this thread to enhance my Spotify weekly playlist. Quite apart from the whole 'Yeah, I love that too!' thing.
  2. Never seen one. Am I right in thinking they're bigger than adders? What did Penny think of it?
  3. @Pinnacle, I know what you mean about the cat piss thing, although I also wonder if the end result (certainly with cordial) is actually signif different regardless of the aroma when picking. (I do generally pick AM but warm sun, damp mist, the cordial is always pretty nice). @ Cornishdog, did you use glass or plastic bottles?
  4. Wah do dem you keep posting things I'm just listening to?you have good musical tastes bud lol.atb dc Lol
  5. Sorry this is a dim question but what does 'aerate the flowers' mean? Shake them around a bit? Ready for first cordial pick here, thought I'd also have a go at the pop this year. I'm thinking screw-top wine/ ol oil bots, once it's ready to bottle. (Good idea?) Never done any fermenting before.

  7. I seriously wasted at least an hour today, comparing that solo to 'head hands and feet' off Moonflower. My conclusion is I never want to listen to a drum solo again. But thanks for the reminder. One of those 'that time, that place' tracks for me.
  8. Thanks for this, and all your other recent nest/egg pics. All so lovely and all so different to each other.
  9. Argh!!! Don't panic!! There'll be an emoji or a meme that will fix it. Unless you're an actual little person, in which case you may be about to fall foul of some radical disability cuts. Wh'evs.
  10. And Also Look on / Use the 'LOST and FOUND'' section in 'General Talk'.
  11. You assume those with little life experience will always vote the same and not change their views surely history shows that people who voted join then voted leave ? Exactly, how many people were lefties when they were young? I know I was Then I got responsibilities and grew up It's true, people become more right wing as they get older. I was a commie in my teens Yep, same here. I was brought up socialist but now I'm rich and also part of the cultural elite, I think 'f**k the little people; I'm alright jack'.
  12. check out a guy called stonnie dennis.u wont go wrong starting off. Thanks for that. Had a look and really like his 'no mystique' approach. Also Michael Ellis (recommended by someone off here) has some useful vids on YouTube.Another thing me and my dog have been playin around with (with occasional commitment) is the 'lurcher field trials' (novice have-a-go) from the NL&RC website. (Obvs not applicable to the OP but just re: training). (I also love these threads, but they frequently make me feel so sorry for my dog..)
  13. The vegan turned up for a few days (pity visit to mum) and FINALLY gave me my party playlist from last year. I do dimly remember us alll galloping round to Mozart. (Oh the shame). Got it on shuffle cookin a chicken. You miss them when they're gone.
  14. I think committing to family can also get in the way of Ambition for some, tough decisions have to be made. My best mate is often in two minds about it, a great highflying job travelling all over the world, but doesn't see his boy from one week to the next.......obviously he'll have a cracking pension at the end of it, but at what cost? Just to add, re working away, Himself worked away for 8 years from when kids were 3 & 5 til 11 & 13.As it happens, I was talking to them about this the other week. They both said they didn't ever feel like he was absent from their lives, and that they
  15. Hmm, why do those pesky feminists keep bleating on about equality.....? (Not bangin a drum, just flaggin it up, before anyone starts getting all bristly)

  17. I think maybe 'living the dream' also depends on whether you're someone who's happy with 'enough', or you need 'full up'.... Satisfied vs Satiated. Most of us can find joy in seeing a rainbow, and a sense of purpose in unblocking the drain. It's about how much ego-centred pleasure and fulfilment you need/ want, and where you set the balance point against your loved ones and their needs. (Maybe whether you need loved ones?) For me 'the dream' is finding that balance point. (She gave a hollow laugh).
  18. Lynn, You're on some Corrs kick there!! (Breathless is Ace by the way).But I totes get that 'enduring song' 'soundtrack of my life' thing. Hope you got the wellies sorted and lookin forward to seeing your posts and pics of where you are and what you're doing. Sounds like an idyll / huge effort.
