There appears to be a new TikTok challenge to ‘set fire to as much stuff as possible’. https://www.devonlive.com/news/devon-news/farmers-warned-over-suspected-tiktok-11093483

The conspiracy theorist in me can't help but wonder if some of these fires are being deliberately started to help create a narrative to push for more net zero measures? Yeah I know that sounds crazy but it makes you wonder though. They do seem to be desperate to push the net zero agenda at...

Some great advice here so far. I would also add that wearing a mask can be of some benefit from smoke and ash inhalation.

Now sold to GreyCat. Prompt payment and an absolute gent to do business with. Thank you. :)

Yesterday as the eclipse was beginning when the light had dimmed and gone an unusual colour, I noticed a magpie behaving rather oddly. It was huddled down on a roof in a weird sitting like stance that I have never seen a magpie do before. It also had its feathers partially fluffed out like they...

That sounds like a wonderful way to spend the night.

I wish!

In the summer we give our horses big 1kg blocks of Himalayan salt to lick which naturally contains all of the electrolytes and minerals they need in this hot weather. Whenever I find myself drinking an excessive amount of water I have a few licks of it too.

I thought it was really impressive. I think you needed something which allowed you to be able to stare at the sun properly in order to fully appreciate it though.

Be careful not to strain your eyes.

Welcome to the forum. :)

How are you guys and gals going to view the solar eclipse later?

Maybe the shops should temporally stop selling disposable barbecues while everything is so dry?

Thank for the instructions. They were very helpful but they do need to be update as some steps have now been changed. It seems that the age verified option is now only available by using the Royal Mail 'click and drop' service which requires you to sign up for an account first.

This weekend I went for a walk in the countryside to clear a busy head and discovered a place nearby which has an absolute cornucopia of foragable foods (is that a word?). There are hundreds, maybe even thousands of blackberry bushes, elderberry trees, sloe berry bushes and more within a few...

Monday price drop - £110

I can't really think of any other animals which intentionally do it. At least not a more permanent or long-term basis. Although maybe you could you include nest building animals within your definition of "actively changes its environment in a lasting manner to its own purpose"
