We definitely grow canola. But it is rapeseed here.

Hmm this isn’t an uncommon scenario. Kid feels let down at crucial time in their life and holds onto that into adulthood. Years of resentment and guilt and lack of willingness to see another perspective.

I’ve often wondered this. The new info makes me wonder even more.

Though now i’ll be thinking about Brannigans beef and mustard for the next week. Best crisps ever.

Thanks for sharing Rachel.

In what world does 1800 “nearly doubled” equate to 2400?

Is this a maths riddle?

By my mental arithmetic that’s not even 50% more?

What an interesting read. We have two Samuel Smith pubs in our town, both closed. Interested to see what happens if he does retire.

Yes! I joined my village choir six years ago and it is the one thing I do for me, and I make time for without question. It is pure joy! I’m the youngest member (in my 40s) & average age is prob 67. And it’s so freaking joyful just to sing with people who also love to sing.

Love the fun fund, what a great idea! Have an awesome weekend and I hope you can switch off enough! x

Just look at it! No head rest, no air bags, open top, and what are the seat belts even going to do?

No caption. But what gorgeous creatures!

I was smugly thinking yesterday 'my cat doesn't jump up on the kitchen surfaces'.

Walked into the kitchen this morning to see the ratbag jumping down because she heard me coming..

So I strongly agree it is revolting.

Great article thanks Rachel. And a lovely conversation on this thread.

Agree. This is what I regularly say to people who ask about using genAI for fundraising. It will only be good if you input what you know as an org, and have real clarity to start. Otherwise it’s generic fluff.

This is an interesting point. I regularly hear people recommend use of genAI to small charities particularly where staff and volunteers have English as a second language and find writing funding applications a challenge. But I’ve not seen or heard anywhere it’s made tangible difference.

That was a brilliant read. Thanks for sharing John.

Unless it’s a fess by the cash machines.
