@WhiteRoseEd Just putting my head above the parapet here. Myself and another colleague could not work this out for love nor money and looking at the answer slides didn’t help. Is there a piece of information missing that is needed to solve it?

Just over a week in our amazing new house in Devon and I think I have already peaked when it comes to garden birds. An alpine swift went tearing over the houses heading west. Speechless! @devonbirds @RareBirdAlertUK

@Tesco What further information do you need please?

[Mike Ixer @MikeIxer]

Hi @Tesco, I bought this a couple of weeks ago, delighted to find an Italian style hard cheese that didn’t list Animal Rennet as an ingredient as my wife is vegetarian. It was good so I went back to get some more this week only to find animal rennet is now listed.

[Mike Ixer @MikeIxer]

@Tesco It was bought in the Tesco Extra in West Bromwich. Barcode number 057753901769

[Mike Ixer @MikeIxer]

Has the product changed or was it wrongly labelled before? Needless to say, my wife is not overly pleased to hear she probably consumed an animal product. Can you explain? Thanks

@IpswichTown Have you seen this @Redfixer ?

[Mike Ixer @MikeIxer]

@MissHannahEdu 1. Lead a subject you’re passionate about - it’s a pain in the backside sometimes but if you at least love it, the pain is dulled.
2. This form amazes me - does your school just say, “Well done leading subjects for the year, what do you fancy next year? All change please…”

[Mike Ixer @MikeIxer]

@paludicola @LeeEvansBirding @Redfixer Guess this is what you were talking about.

[Mike Ixer @MikeIxer]

@missbhammond @MartinSLewis I got the email - we are getting it.

I’ve seen some abominations on @Shitlawns before, but this one must be one of the worst things I’ve ever seen. If a plastic lawn wasn’t bad enough in the first place, it doesn’t even have the uniformity some people crave!

@BhamCityCouncil Put in an appeal about a parking fine about a fortnight ago but I haven’t heard anything back - confirmation, rejection, anything. I’ve DM’ed you my vehicle reg and parking location. Misplaced the ticket now so can’t find the number.

Hey @EnvAgency, any known pollution incidents on the river Tame as it has gone a very funny colour running through Sandwell Valley. If none are known, I suggest looking for one… @ExpressandStar @sandwellcouncil @RSPBSandwell

This summer is going to be tough for a lot of families, please #RT it may help someone

Still hoping for a reply on this @BandQ @bandq_help . Let’s tag a few more people. @RSPBbirders @Natures_Voice @WildlifeTrusts @WTBBC @RSPCA_official . Anyone else want an answer about this?

[Mike Ixer @MikeIxer]

Hi @BandQ , not sure it’s a good look to have dead birds hanging in netting over your outdoor plants in Wednesbury. What is the purpose of this netting please? It doesn’t cover the whole yard, just enough to snag a few birds. @bandq_help @WestMidBirdClub

[Mike Ixer @MikeIxer]

@nationaltrust I’m at a point in my life where I own one of these.

Hi @EnvAgency , why was this contractor spraying next to a water course during rain in Sandwell Valley today?

[Mike Ixer @MikeIxer]

Hi @sandwellcouncil , why was it necessary to cut the grass and wildflowers alongside Swan Pool at this time of year?
