LOVE this glass!!!! Where does it come from? And yes. I'd add fresh strawberries and freshly ground black pepper to such a culinary delight..

I take no credit for this, ( so the original is intact with author) but doing a PhD in Humanities makes me more than exasperated with "academic writing". As a professional writer for over 30 years I TRY to write clearly with a modicum of elegance 🤔😳 if I fail the PhD because of this then so be it..

No, we don't spray plants either, and always have live meal worms every year for the small birds to feed their young. The blue tits and gold finches have been doing okay but no sign of sparrows..

It's worrying. We have no sparrows in the garden this year, although plenty of bluetits on feeder.
