Couple of my MTB mates need only to look at a bramble and they piss blood. My sympathies to nick and guy this evening - especially to guy who also had an argument with a tree and lost

this is, hands down, the best video I've seen on men's influencer content and it's not close either

Finished this for a customer today - did most of the install before back holiday weekend but had some paint touch ups to do. Love seeing my work once it's all loaded up and in use, and is yet another reminder to 25 year old bash to NOT ABANDON YOUR SODDING VINYL COLLECTION YOU IDIOT

Dog days of summer. Let's eke it out, just a little while longer

Monkey is furious - furious, I tell you - when we dare to eat a veggie dinner, especially in his garden.

The garden is so, so, so dry this year but I can still summon up a nice vase. I've got some very short-stemmed dahlias, zinnias doing ok where I've grown them as cut flowers, and a few other bits and bobs.

No notes. Just perfect.

UK self-assessment tax payers: If you have a second payment on account it's due today, 31st July Even if you don't think you *have* to pay a second payment on account, I recommend you log in and check. I thought that last year, and I did. And they hadn't told me. And I had to pay interest.

Who wants to see my latest creation? It's a lovely big wardrobe for a kid's bedroom, with a bookshelf that's got a secret.... #woodworking #interiors

Why I 🧡 the web. drawafish.com Just draw the fish. Trust me. 🐟

Installing this magic door as part of a wardrobe today... Decided it was a good place to hang out!

Everybody stop what you're doing and admire my zinnias please

Good post, this. We need proper tax reform, not an unimplementable wealth tax

And the reason for this, for the people at the back is that nobody - literally nobody - is suggesting that pilates instructors should go unpaid, or that everyone has a godgiven right to attend pilates classes for free.

Found not my cat in the garden again, he's such a splendid boy

If bazball was a person

My wife's away for a few days, so I've got the lads round with beers and watching the sport... Am I fuck. It is beanageddon though, so let's make Greek bean stew (which I only just learnt is called Fasolakia, having been eating it my whole life)

my current job contains a bookshelf door, first I've made. it's a bit complicated but a lot of fun.

Inside you, there are two wolves.

What I've read about their story often comes across as completely made up too. Fantasists and weirdos

Oh fuck my life, I got involved in us-uk food discourse again. It's genuinely astonishing how insistent people can be that we only eat terrible food. Apparently being a multicultural nation in 2025 doesn't count.

I'm really confused typing this but I think I had the best sushi I've ever had this evening and it was in Weston super mare? I'd heard it was good but, honestly. Weston. Best sushi. Weston. What

If you're lucky enough to have a garden or allotment, I really recommend it as an escape - this time of year is just filled with unstoppable joy.

A rant worth listening to

Can literally hear the prodigy from my garden. Mind you, I'm only 13 miles away

Many people try to be frugal and save money, but they don't have the option of buying stuff that benefits from frugal design or frugal engineering; stuff that is simple, robust, repairable, and affordable. lloydalter.substack.com/p/why-we-nee...

Never really thought of this, but it's quite possible I faced sunak on the sports field. Did he play 3rd 11 hockey? Was he a long jumper?

It's a good apricot year here. This is maybe not even a quarter of the harvest. Who wants some jam?

Met my friend's new kitten the other day, who is just beautiful. Apologies for the gurning idiot pic, and I was going mtbing, I don't have to wear a helmet indoors!

Saw the Ballard of Wallace Island tonight and it's as beautiful as the reviews have been saying. Really funny, tender and heartbreaking - had no idea Tim key could be as moving as that, just a wonderful performance.

Another evening stroll, more glowworms, and pints and hills

Saw my first glowworms tonight! They're really quite rare in the UK, so I was very excited. Very hard to photograph with a phone camera, it turns out. Also heard a nightjar, which I'm not sure I ever have before. It was a good evening stroll...

The replies to this post are hugely cheering! Focus on the good things in life and you remember what's worth fighting for.

Came home to find these bees having a nice cuddle

BECOME UNGOVERNABLE

Doing a house swap in the Peak this weekend. View of the neighbouring stone cottages from the front garden

Incredible shot!

Great thread. We need to remember that we the people have the power, not the bastards. We have the power to reject the shit that they try to foist on us.

These are SO GOOD!

Ahhhhhh it ain't so bad

I think maybe we just all make a pact that if anyone wearing one talks to us, we tear it off the wearer and crush it underfoot

Dartmoor is full of majestic beauty

36 hours, it took me to spot this. On my bloody forearm!
