@StagecoachYrks no 1 7:04 bus doesn't even turn up and 7:10 bus just pootles past out of service. The next bus is running at least 15 mins late. Please dont bother apologising for inconvenience. Just stop being incompetent.

[CandleLamp @No1sShadow]

@CarlBovisNature Oh unsurprisingly I've already got them blocked. Was not drama or grief I needed.

[CandleLamp @No1sShadow]

@StagecoachYrks number 1 going past not in service but carrying passengers again . Ridiculous

@Morrisons where can I find information about coeliacs safe options in your cafes?

[CandleLamp @No1sShadow]

@Morrisons Hi, I've received an offer for free Birthday cake in your cafe, but would there be ceoliac safe options? Thanks.

@PotteringPolly They do need watering most days, sometimes twice a day when really hot, like most hanging baskets, but it seems to work really well with little tomatoes. Its the only way I grow them now.

This is Joseph Wood, of Milton Drive in Buckie. He spent five years sexually abusing a little girl, starting when she was seven. He was found guilty of multiple sexual assaults at Inverness Sheriff’s Court, and walked away with 200 hours of community service, three years’ supervised probation, and 3 years on the sex offender registry — two years less than he spent abusing his victim.

I think Mr. Wood and his appallingly light sentence deserve to go viral, so I’m giving it a go. So does the judge who handed the sentence down, so if anyone knows that name please do drop it in the comments.

@CopMoustache You know what? Don't ever change.

@biltontowers Standing was your choice. There's at least one other empty seat.

@OurCowMolly I've just seen the clear allergen labels online. So happy its clear with no ambiguity. Makes a nice change 👌

@StagecoachYrks why are the buses diverting im High Green? How long us it likely to last?

[CandleLamp @No1sShadow]

@dontforgetchaos The more I see, the less I have to say on here. Im not here much anymore.

[CandleLamp @No1sShadow]

@dontforgetchaos I have windows I haven't shut for about 2 years now.

A bricklayer in East Yorkshire has spent 35 years putting up barn owl nest boxes on weekends. This year, the region saw 308 owlets hatch.

His name is Robert Salter. He's 56 and does bricklaying full time. In 1990, he saw a piece on the news about a man in Lincolnshire installing barn owl boxes, and decided he'd do the same. He started with five.

He now has more than 350 boxes scattered across fields, farms, outbuildings, and trees in East Yorkshire. Every June, he takes four weeks off from bricklaying and visits them with his wife Sue. Scrambling up ladders, ringing chicks, cleaning boxes, repairing the ones the weather got to. He's a licensed bird ringer for the British Trust for Ornithology.

In 2024, the region ringed 95 owlets. In 2025, the count was 308. The Barn Owl Trust says that nationally, this year was "pretty poor" for barn owl breeding, but east Yorkshire is the exception, and it's the exception because of one man with a ladder.

The barn owl population in the UK was estimated at 4,000 pairs in the mid-2000s and crashed to roughly 1,000 by the early 2010s. The species is still recovering.

Most of conservation is one person who refuses to give up.

@WoodlandNomad Looks like box tree moth caterpillar. Horribly invasive pest. The bane of gardeners.
