Grower of the best-ish root vegetables in Mercia. Growing turnips isn't just a job: it's my métier, my calling. Also selling at @rootvegserf.bsky.social
The New World colonists have chosen the path of darkness & civil war. Time to disengage from their failed banana republic. This is my last post here (see what I did with the video?). You can find me, safe in the 7th Century, in the blue place.
So long and thanks for all the fish
@Ashfromenfield@NTaylor1991 I have never, ever seen a field full of live kebabimals. I've seen sheep, cows, goats, pigs. chickens - even llamas - but never seen a kebab on the hoof. Where do they breed them? What do they do with the head and legs?
@AdamBienkov The costs of a retailer employing someone p/t on min for 16hrs will increase by about £1200. The cost of a f/t employee on min will go up by about 1800. So sack 2 part-timers & replace with a full-timer. Women, young people & minorities are over-represented in the p/t workforce.
@AdamBienkov I haven't heard anyone pointing out the discriminatory effect of the NI changes on p/t workers. The cut in the start point to 5k means that the cost of part-timers has rocketed. Now makes more sense to have 1 f/t than 2 p/t. P/t is weighted towards women.young, minorities.
@TheKentAcorn I remember an episode of Michael Wood's TV series (1970s?) when he took a Saxon charter from 1000 years ago that described a land-holding - "from the bend in the stream to the white rock, thence along the ditch etc" - and he traced it. The landmarks were still there.
@pixieandbee1 Have you just considered moving? The wonderful Wülferhampton 2.0 seems to be generally rug-rat free, and has a lot of old * familiar faces over there now.
* NOT OLD! I've just led a hard life, supervising the orphans in the fields in all weathers can age the skin.
@ModigThe Show me a portrait drawn by an artist who has never seen the subject of the portrait and is working from a description by an incredibly long-sighted person of a bad passport photograph of the subject.
@harlequincryme@mrmarksteel I wouldn't go off and kill a few tens of thousands of children in retaliation.
Even the Zionists only claim that 'an eye for an eye' is legit - not 1000 eyes for an eye.
Of course the equivalent would be the RAF actually killing many of those "100s of kids" - Hannibal rules
