@Philippa_Perry I like her Howard Hodgkin.

[Anita McCullough @cornbunting]

@Philippa_Perry He means that ironically of course. I remember Grayson when we had chats over the non-existent garden fence; about the price of electricity and stuff. He had no money, I had not much more. His bill was always going to be higher than mine because he’d just acquired a big kiln!

@AliUK12 1) They will appreciate water from your rain butt rather than the tap 2) they don’t need much pruning, none at all is fine 3) a mulch of 3-4 inches of leaf-mould around their roots will be spot on (after watering)

@scottygb If you had patents with a ‘drinks fridge’, you were somewhat set up in life to be a good guy if you could 👏👏👏

@miffythegamer @SimonBinning As does your ability to write lists!

[Anita McCullough @cornbunting]

@lucigosling Now THAT’S laziness!

[Anita McCullough @cornbunting]

@StephMurphy But UK citizens are not required to carry ID, so it’s not a valid request, no matter what.

[Anita McCullough @cornbunting]

@wiltonscott4 You got some great leads here! I hope slobber is one useful word. Squeal might be another.

@TheCowboyBirder Could you do a little training course for us? 📷

@xobreex3 Wanstead Flats. From the playing fields #E11 earlier this week.

[Anita McCullough @cornbunting]

@tonybanksmusic Ah, but you always look good in shades.

@miche2my Personally, I reject a fork (in a work canteen for example) that has wonky and uneven tines. Can’t eat with it.

@MooreFinancialM Home made Welsh cake?

@joannaofottawa You’re sorted all right! With a title like that…:-) Bon voyage and have a great, easy time. BTW. I acquired my first Philip Roth paperback, on your recommendation. Here goes…

One of 19 Marbled White butterflies - the most I’ve ever seen - on a brownfield site in East London today. Don’t write off such ‘scrubby’ sites as valueless for nature. They can be some of the best. ⁦@savebutterflies⁩ ⁦@RoseNWF⁩ ⁦@FWP2009⁩ ⁦@essexbna⁩

[Anita McCullough @cornbunting]

@tharris0457 @savebutterflies @RoseNWF @FWP2009 @essexbna Fab sightings Tim! And photo is ace.

[Anita McCullough @cornbunting]

@DuilleDesign @EastMarple1 I agree about the multi-directional gazes. It appears to have been the thing that those on the right and left ‘arms’ of the group would be expected to look at an angle to the photographer, not at him/her. And the eyes of the photographer would be hidden anyway!

[Anita McCullough @cornbunting]

@EastMarple1 @JayneShrimpton I do like it. I always remind myself that most photos of this type were taken to mark an occasion of some kind. Even though it may not look like it. Someone may have been retiring or a couple joining the team. Some may have been about to go off to war. That sort of thing.

@StephenShelle20 No need to be scared. I am still contracting at 64. I face each new gig with some trepidation of course, but I work and do what I know. Last time I worked in a team that included alongside a very experienced and awesome 70 year-old woman.
