minibeasts its not great but you get a bit of a feeling what
it might be like to be a slug

i want a bee hive, but i would not take their honey i would
offer them my honey that i make from flowers. i would then
eat sugar water. lol

nice slug. I kinda like slugs but i get loads in hgarden
they eat my food.I move them to rear of the garden they
slime back to my food. I think they know exactly where they
get moved to and where my food is.

Just think how much self determination a slug has to get a
bit of some lovely crispy veg, its uses a very inefficient
method of getting around, and it had eyes that are probably
worse vision that a soviet era black and white tv.

So let me get this straight: You want to ride on a magic
carpet to see the king of the potato people and beg with him
for your freedom. And you're telling me that you're
completely sane?

slug facts : Only 5% of the slug population is above ground
at any one time. The other 95% is underground digesting your
seedlings, laying eggs, and feeding on roots and seed
sprouts.

also their blood is green like mr spock

This song has bees too and is about spring's sweet sunshine
and breaking your face on it.
LAZY_TITLE
This song is more accurate to what humans have turned spring
into. You can envision the bees dying in the pollution and
the destruction of anything trying to blossom with revving
engines.

Its great news about the gravity waves isnt it, we will be
able to feel to wobbles of the big bang sort of like feeling
how the direction of the ripples in your bath water are
coming from,

think that amazed me and im not amazed often is that
colliding black holes release many more times energy in the
form of gravitational space warping waves for a brief moment
than all the stars in the observable universe, get your head
round that one.

Also they dont release any electro magnetic energy when they
do this, so no light/heat just big sodding waves eminating
across spacetime

will we feel it ?

i think we would have to be much closer to feel them as they
dissipate over time, they were known to be a consequence of
Einsteins field equations which are 100 years old today so
do discover they are real is incredible, god knows the
upshot of their discover, its like not knowing radio waves
existed

ever see a show about physics with.a professor with a funny
voice quite like the scientist off the simpsons...might even
have been modeled from him? who worked with einstein and
educated young people with practical experiments?

If i find it i'll post it.

did you know if you grow a cabbage it will last the snow and
stay in the ground till the next spring and following
summer..

great way to store food.

living in the soil.

if y hungry 3 leaves of cabbage and some rice will keep you
alive for a day.

i wish i had the knowledge, my father owned a allotment and
was always out in the the garden, he really enjoyed being
around the bees and the flowers and wind and sun, He was
from an age when it was more natural to have a direct
connection to nature. Its made me realised how divorced i am
from it all its very sad.

just a few ideas in case you decided to one year.

if you get a pot , with some soil and pop a seed in, food
grows : )

i started with strawberries already from a plant, real
easy....they spread fast. from runners. awesome starter for
growing.

then beans and cabbage and even just basil by a window

if you ever do..best to by organic seeds and plants. in
case of gmo or some chemical shizen.

also orgainc compost is quite cheap ...best to go to a
garden centre not a supermarket as they cheap you out.

John Innes compost is good.

its not hard work when growing in pots with soft compost.

Thanks for the tips, i will have to ask my gf she is always
growing little things, i like strawberries alot.

i think with the increase in the price of food we will all
have to be doing this to make life sustainable

you would love my mate Colin, he tries to be self
sufficient, when he was living in a house he had all sorts
of veg and made his own bread, i think he had to stop his
cats from pissing on the plant beds though.

not heard of that game you mention.

is that a monopoly type game?

i feel odd just siting on a bench in towns, its like the
view is so stressful in cities so all these new
developments... I dont visit them.

I kinda prefer trees to concrete. lol.

unfortunately if you google earth ....there are not many.
its quite scary.
