In the spring I put up a feeder with sunflower hearts in an attempt to encourage goldfinches to my back yard. Over the summer I had a pair visit regularly, then 3 young joined them later. Now I get a flock emptying the feeder every day. The greedy little swine are eating me out of house & home.

Increasingly I feel that what once was considered the political mainstream in the U.K. has completely lost its moral compass. When did the question about concentration camps and mass deportations become one of practical feasibility?

Bit of a change from the WRWC in Dublin in 2017 where the matches were played on University pitches in front of crowds of a few hundred !

Leaving for Sunderland shortly. I’ll be spending a few hours in the fan zone with friends before watching Eng v USA at WRWC2025.
Been looking forward to this for so long.
