Now in Galicia, Spain for a cider festival in A Estrada. Meeting local cider makers who make fabulous drinks in panoramically spectacular places.

Best cider bar/restaurant/shop in Porto is Restaurante Sidraria Celta Endovelico. You can find also our ciders there. Definitely visit a place if you happen to be in Porto!

Dabinett still in bloom

I wish that moving the grass would be as quick as this timelapse walkthrough our cider apple and perry pear orchard. #orchard

And another beehive in our orchard! Quite strange because today is super windy. #beehive

Different day, different angle. #dabinett

Such a regular view at cidery.

Now the late ones like Dabinett, Plakanais and Yarlington mill are starting to bloom in our semi tree size cider apple orchard. Most of them are on MM106 rootstock.

Mowing grass in our new cider apple and perry pear orchard. Love it!

Beautiful! Love our orchard!

A fantastic read from @barmas.bsky.social in @ciderreview.bsky.social cider-review.com/2026/04/04/c...

Quietly proud of this little achievement. Would you like to help us get to 500? 🙂 We have some pretty cool articles coming up soon!

Thread: Why Do Russians Go to Fight in Ukraine? It’s All About the $$$ 1/ Why do Russians go to fight in Ukraine? Spoiler: it’s not about ideology or patriotism. It’s all about the money. Let me explain.

We are asking Ukrainians to defeat the armies of Putin and Kim Jong Un. In their efforts to do so, Ukrainians helped bring down Assad. Ukrainian resistance is one of the most stunning military achievements in modern history.

#Moldova's secret service (SIS) has published a 16-page report (in Romanian) about Russian interference in Moldova's presidential election and #EU referendum. Some highlights in English that stood out to me. First, the Kremlin created a command center in 2024 to interfere... 1/6

Now that Assad and the Russians are out of Syria, the Persian Gulf States might actually be able to make this Qatar-Turkey Pipeline happen. This would help Europe reduce dependency on Russia energy imports and it would eliminate Iran's perpetual threat against ships near the Strait of Hormuz.

Savējie sapratīs!

This did NOT age well, lol.

Did he ever say anything like that about Russia's actions in Ukraine?

NATO expansion is a myth. It is a Russian lie. Here is the map. After World War II the Russians militarily occupied half the European continent. The Russians picked their leaders. They wrote their laws. They brutalized their people and took whatever they wanted.

‚Kherson’s civilians have been, since midsummer, the target of an experiment without precedent in modern European warfare: a concerted Russian campaign to empty a city by stalking its residents with attack drones.‘ giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

In December of 1991 - 33 years ago - Ukrainians voted overwhelmingly (92%) for their independence. In the Donbass region, the pro-independence vote was 85% and in Crimea it was 54%. Turnout was 84%. Ukrainians chose to be free from Russia and Putin can't undo this vote with his military.

🙏🇺🇦 "The losses of AFU are much lower than the U.S. press reports about 80,000. We do not know how many Ukrainians died in the occupied territories, including civilians, police officers, tortured...," - Zelensky ❗️Since September, Ukraine's losses to Russia have been 1 to 8.

The other day, I was giving a ride to an Azov guy I know. And he was like... "Sometimes, I find myself praying that the next shell comes for me and delivers me from this hell on earth. Sometimes, Russians on comms don't get it why we laugh as we repel their meat grinder assaults...

Lovely article. Perry is a true marvel in a world of fermented drinks. Lets add some emoji! 🍐🍐🍐🍾🥂💪

“Let me remind you: Surrender means Russian occupation. Russian occupation means torture, sexual violence, enforced disappearance, denial of your identity, forcible adoption of your own children, filtration camps, and mass graves. Occupation is just another form of the war.” – Oleksandra Matviichuk

There may be a powerful missile attack on Ukraine today, the US Embassy. The US Embassy in Kyiv received specific information about a possible significant air attack on November 20. As a precaution, the embassy will be closed and embassy staff ordered to shelter in place.

Days - 1000 Casualties - 725,000🌻 Ruble - 💩🧻 Economy - 🚽 War crimes - ♾ Interest rates - 20% Kursk - Partly Russian Aircraft - Submarine Warships - Submarine Submarine - Sub marine Oil refineries - 💥🔥 Trolls - Coping Red lines - Crossed I remain a master strategist.

The full-scale invasion day 1,000th. We owe everything we have to a Ukrainan soldier - who’s tired, unwilling, outnumbered, and outgunned, sensing grief and injustice - yet who keeps doing the terrible job every single day to save the world.

Note to reporters, editors and headline writers working on Russia and Ukraine: the ATACMS is a short-range (tactical) missile, not a long-range missile. This consistent error generates a misleading impression and should be corrected.

Limits on the use of supplied weapons by Ukrainian defenders are idiotic. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine understands Russia and knows what it's doing. Political-military leadership in the USA, UK, France and Germany is clueless and should stop interfering.

Things sent to Ukraine that won’t cause WWIII: -Javelins -HIMARS -ATACMS -Tanks -Jets -Permission to hit Russia with the above Things likely to cause WWIII: -Appeasing genocidal autocrats -Enriching expansionist dictators -Failing to respond when the above sabotage and attack us

Latvia jails former official for pro-Russia spying

Russian losses per 09/11/23 reported by the Ukrainian general staff. +1080 (!) men +15 tanks +18 APV's +36 (!) artillery pieces +3 MLRS +5 AD systems +26 UAVs +1 cruise missile

Hope its coming soon!

True words.

I rarely make predictions, as the future is uncertain and the end is always near, but declarations that #Ukraine's #offensive has #culminated may be premature. Ukrainian gains continue to be incremental, but the level of fighting has not significantly changed for months. 🧵
