Oh joy, the train is stuck at Cricklewood while they literally turn it off and on again because three out of five engines gave up 🫤

Managed to collect most of the remaining tomatoes (2.5kg!) from the garden without coughing too much, so taking that as today's win 🌱

My favourite kind of autumn day, bright and warm in the sun, tempered with a cool breeze. Leaves starting to turn and fall.
Happy autumn equinox!

Timeline cleanse: another of this year's accidental self-seeded plants has bloomed in the last week - marvel of peru 🌱

One for the greenfingers of Bluesky: anyone know what this plant is please? 🌱
It's self-seeded and not one of my usual cast of weeds/unintentional plants, but kind of pretty #gardeners #bloomscrolling

Includes excellent Terry Pratchett definition of competancy (couldn't run a whelk store) - I normally default to the "furious cup of cat" for ai and automation, but this works too.

Happy #SummerSolstice

Couple of pics from the garden before it gets stupidly hot again - fresh picked raspberries and the purple flowering thyme 🌱

They're here... ST:TNG tea cups may be one of the more niche bits of memorabilia I've ever bought, but I love them
<Squeals in geeky delight>

By the way, does anyone have recommendations for a good Earl Grey tea blend?

Yeah, the blog states all the things they'll rely on it for, and then deploys the wishy-washy resonse to any criticism "It's also important to emphasise that as a predictive model, the England Peat Map should not be used as a stand-alone justification for action at a given site."
I'm skeptical...
