    My parents had their garden redone with all native species and you would not believe the amount of wildlife it attracts. I even saw my first blue-banded native bee, a species that until then I didn't even know existed!

    Shame they’ll get destroyed when they finally do fix the holes. Someone near me went around at night painting dongs and boobs on potholes - council fixed them a lot quicker!

    My nephew gave me the side-eye when I told him there are purple carrots. He SO clearly thought I was just trying to mess with him (he's very young). So when I couldn't find any at the greengrocer I ordered a packet of seeds and grew carrots in everything from purple to white, and presented them to him when he came visiting. He took them home with him. :D

    This is why one should be very careful if food shows mold. The other end of the cheese or bread might look okay, but the mold may have reached it already. To avoud wasting food, use the freezer. E.g. to store bread you won't eat within a day or two, once thawed it will look and taste the same.

    That's how chickens "bathe". They lie in the dirt and kick it all over their bodies, the dirt absorbs all the excess moisture and oil off their skin and feathers, then they shake it all off.
