  1. @Wininoid @Stargrace @Dr_Toerag Thanks! Quite excited!!
  2. The drops they put in my eyes today have made my pupils huge. Everything is so bright I can barely see out of them!!!
  3. Consultation done. Laser eye surgery booked for next Thursday. Scary stuff!!
  4. @sarajgreenfield If you're a salad eating person, rocket's pretty easy. It must be if I grew it without realising!
  5. @sarajgreenfield Aha. The one that flowered early (still going) and the bees went mad for was a sort of rocket. flic.kr/p/c746ZA
  6. @sarajgreenfield That's the stuff I battle when trying to make space for my other wildflowers. Got some cornflowers. They're nice.
  7. @sarajgreenfield Trying to find out the names of the others, but I have a green alkanet infestation. Bees love it, but I wouldn't plant it.
  8. @sarajgreenfield They're probably all round my place. Got loads of them. But I plant wild flowers deliberately.
  9. @MaeveMP @rowanblaze We don't really have salmonella problems here. If we did, I expect habits would change.
  10. @MaeveMP @rowanblaze Oh sure. You splash the oil onto the top to get it a bit better cooked.
  11. @MaeveMP Apparently it is because we Brits are fearless of Salmonella :D
  12. @tomtomorrow Defaced?
  13. @kemptonslim They'll just be upset that they can't make a Coke sticker small enough to stick on the side of it!
  14. BBC News - 'Olympic rings' molecule olympicene in striking image bbc.in/LvSgeY
  15. @GeorgeMonbiot Oh sure, I know he's a warmonger who belongs in the Hague! The J P Morgan stuff just sounded a bit odd though.
  16. @GeorgeMonbiot Was that stuff he was shouting about actually true?
  17. @terrsc Doesn't the yolk leak everywhere when you turn it?
  18. Just discovered that most countries fry their eggs on both sides. That seems rather awkward.
