  1. A warm 29C today - did lots of moving heavy things around, naturally. And haymaking. Tomorrow's forecast: a barmy real feel of 35. #scorchio
  2. Overweight Britons, you don't need gym membership. You need a scythe. Less than two hours nearly destroyed me (and I'm used to exercise).
  3. Dear @bbc - your online weather page redesign is unusable. Please tell the committee of buffoons who approved it.
  4. That's the end of July and all of August booked. Now, to see how those geese are getting on.
  5. @charliebudd How very predictable. I think you're getting the hang of that...
  6. @charliebudd And...?
  7. Camp in London - great idea if you don't know anyone who lives there! gu.com/p/37qp3/tw via @guardian
  8. @sub273 You a punny guy.
  9. Great, peaceful vid on making hay with a scythe: youtu.be/Cs8qiucZZx0 via @youtube
  10. Watched a vid, set it up comfortably, sharpened the blade and... IT WORKS! #scytheofrelief
  11. Our first poem (from an 8-year-old guest)! At the Yurt it's very hot, At the Yurt you can catch crickets, At... fb.me/1NTi5OQSZ
  12. Geese is the word. Say rrrk, rrrrk, rrk to the new birds on the flock. fb.me/wswKOHoz
  13. @iamjamesward I forgot to register! How do I vote?
  14. @patroclus You're such a parentreneur.
  15. @Kurt_Vonnegut You said this the other day - and I agree. But I think the greatest flaw generally is the need to eat three time a day.
  16. Great vid of what to expect if you ARE planning to arrest Tony Blair on Monday: arrestblair.org/war-crimes-rep… - oh, and good luck!
  17. @Yukett Try writing everything in the key of 'C' today. Instant benefit: No sharps!
  18. RT-ing this from last night, for those not up at silly o'clock. The snail-shell solar shower, by day and night: thedevolutionary.blogspot.fr/2012/05/solar-…
  19. @LeMonjat Thanks. It's infinitely more satisfying than what I used to do for an existence.
