Weird how it's affected the different varieties

They should survive and pull through.
Bit of frost damage to my first early potatoes. Yet my main crop are completely unaffected. Nice to see some of my foxgloves starting to flower.

It's only Star Wars day
If anyone is looking at switching energy providers, I highly recommend Octopus Energy. I switched in December, better prices than my old provider and no exit fees.

A very different style viking! Lots of browns, really light acrylic washes, like REALLY watered down and layered to get the right look.

Seeds sown, all my potatoes are in the ground and a few plants planted into beds. Now to relax for 10 minutes in the shed while listening to Absolute Rock

Close-up shot of a fox captured at night in a suburban area. The fox is partially illuminated by ambient streetlight, revealing its fur texture and alert expression. Background features darkened houses, with a quiet, peaceful suburban setting. Text on the image reads: Earth Hour, Saturday 22 March, 8:30-9:30pm. Switch off and connect with nature this Earth Hour. The WWF logo is present top right.

Pretty sure they mean SAS, the airline.....not the Special Air Service
Turning out to be a nice day. Only a quick visit to the allotment today. Fed the chickens, watered the greenhouse and harvested some purple sprouting broccoli.
I've also done some sowing. Peas, broadbeans, sunflowers, leeks and some speedy salad mix.
Another day and another view from the allotment shed #allotment #allotmentlife #gardener #gardening

On 15 March 1939 Hitler and his deputy summoned the Czech President to Hitler’s residence in Berlin and then bullied him to submitting to a German invasion of his country.
They drove him to the point of physical collapse, threatening him until he eventually signed his country’s death warrant.
And finally some of the food we ate.

Too early in my opinion. I won't start mine until mid to late March.
Image of injured seal with words.. Meet Orca 😔 an 120kg seal entangled in thin fishing net, stuck around her neck. Cutting deep into her skin causing multiple wounds. It will cost us up to £10,000 in rehab. Please consider visiting our Amazon wishlist (thermometers, buckets, scales, salt). Any donation helps ❤️
RSPCA East Winch are seeking your support to rehabilitate a injured seal caught in a ghost net.

If you're sick and tired of the cold weather, there's growing consensus that it'll turn milder next week.
However, it's likely to be a slow and gradual process...
Consistently hitting 180KG on the deadlift every week without fail. Tonight pushed for 190KG. Still feel like there's more in there.
Lovely and warm in the sun today, almost like spring.
Kingfishers are great. Me and my dad spent hours a few years ago watching a couple of them. Interesting birds
