Plenty of tomatoes, salad etc in French supermarkets. The BBC & Tories are gaslighting. Brexit is the problem. Brexit IS the problem.

Bad weather has destroyed the tomatoe crop in Spain hence shortage in uk, say the super markets. But they are grown in plastic green houses. Was there a hole in the roof?

The failure to mention Scotland's Patron Saints Day is deliberate by the media, they are trying crush everything Scottish e.g. culture, language, broadcasting, we are not even allowed to watch our national team for free:

Posting another beautiful photo in France. This is the cascade at Autoire. Now that I've calmed down a bit, I'm going to the bar to have a Tory nonsense free evening, with a plate of charcuterie and a salad. :-) #France #NotTheUK

If one single British child went missing anywhere in the world 🇬🇧 government and media would go into meltdown and expect the world to care too. Dozens of kids have gone missing in 🇬🇧 but bedside they’re foreign and seeking asylum neither govt nor media seems to give a toss 1/2

#Grafting #apples . Remarkably easy (although a bit fiddly until you get a bit practise) and satisfying. In two months I'll remove the tape and check if its taken. I get about 70% success. #GardeningTwitter #gardening #appletrees #growingfood

Best idea yet! Baked potatoes in the woodburner. Just wrapped in foil and put in the ashpan and they are ready just over an hour later - another bonus idea for a woodburner. #Food #cheapeats #Food

I posted a photo of my first French house yesterday. Very modern. Here is where I am now - a 16th century stone dovecot with attached animal barn that's been extended. Thick stone walls, loads of character. Small maison d'amis too. 5 acres & pool. My hobbit/Weasley house. #France
