Gardener. Passionate about wildlife (esp hedgehogs). Outdoors is best and that’s where I’m normally to be found, if there’s water nearby, so much the better

@JulianRoughton Just returned from a week in Friesland where I did see a sign depicting a wolf - I didn’t take it seriously, but so pleased to see this post confirming their presence!

I need you.
Something strange happened.
Twitter algorithms don’t show my tweets to many people.

So if you see this tweet, please, give any reaction you can (like, reply, share).
Twitter might not like Ukraine. But Ukraine is here. And I won’t let it be forgotten.
♥️ thank you.

@patrick_barkham @SouthwoldBooks Loved the talk, and wasn’t it a magical setting! Swims to the pier the best! However, inspired to get on the Waveney this morning for a peaceful paddle

stanley johnson wants the population reduced to 25 million in the UK.
Yeah Stanley - so do I
No Tories whatsoever
No Aristos
Nobody earning over 100k p.a.
and about 90% of that 25 million would be bird species.
You'd be within the first 100 to be eliminated.
