Ouch
My sheep weigh around 11 stone each (tups can be up to 15 or 16 stone) so a whole flock going over you would really do some damage.

Sending love to all that need it 
He filmed a mini series about it that was on TV recently. His family moved in and rearranged the farm so it was more manageable for his parents. They changed the sheep to a smaller easier breed too. It was really interesting!
It’s available on catch-up if anybodies interested

PIP and ESA assessors can be absolute tossers, Hotes. I was initially awarded enhanced rate PIP in 2014 for three years without an assessment. The year before last I had a face-to-face assessment where I got zero points on everything. Just before COVID kicked off I went to a tribunal and it took them no time at all to reinstate all my points. They actually phoned me as I was still on my way home. I'd recommend getting in touch with a local disability advocacy service if you have one (and if you haven't already) as I was fully prepared to just roll over and not fight it even with help. It turns out as well that the advocacy service had already dealt with multiple tribunal cases from that particular assessor as she'd been handing out zeros to a huge proportion of the people she was seeing so it's possible this person is doing similar.
I love that
I love Erasure too, I remember my mum having their The Tank, The Swan and the balloon tour on video and my sister & I used to love watching it and my mum used to love to tell us me & your dad are in that crowd somewhere.

Thanks Psychic Slopbot and @traumatised sideboard as I say I know it’s all a “game” they rely on making it so hard you give up, I know they key thing is to keep on at them.
For my appeal I have now got assistance from a Law Centre who have experience in this, also DWP might be ok with my whispers but I can’t reliably speak so I need someone to do the talking for me if nothing else.

Good luck Hotes
Thank you for all the love, you bunch of faceless ninnies, and good luck Blurp.
Glad to see at least Badger is back on form and VERY bouncy, those lambs are random, they jump about for like no reason. Like popcorn when you think it’s finished and it keeps popping.

A friend's daughter used to work in the arts and once told Richard Jobson of the Skids that she'd been at one of their gigs before she was born. He was a bit incredulous so she asked him if he remembered a gig at X place on Y date when they were just starting out and the pregnant woman dancing on a table? He did, and she informed him that she was that bump!
Has anyone made their own vanilla extract?
For ages people have been going on about their homemade vanilla that's been going for several decades and as I go though so many little pots of vanilla paste I must now have a go at it. Even though the extract won't be like the paste, but I gather you can squish out some beans from the homemade extract when needed.
I can't decide if I should use vodka or spiced rum. Part of me thinks vodka to keep it pure vanilla and so it starts off clear, the other part thinks spiced rum is yum and would go with just about every recipe that calls for vanilla.

I've only ever made vanilla sugar which is dead easy, but not extract. Just googled it and it looks so easy - defo give it a try! Yep I reckon vodka would be better if you wanted to keep it pure vanilla.
Yes - and I tried it with vodka, dark rum and spiced rum as a test. The dark rum was sublime, imo.
Can our dear friend Max please follow some of Jack's recipes exactly as written and get back to us? Scuffins and headrush spaghetti would be my suggestions.
Just to add - I got food boxes for a while. I was stuck in a bit of a rut cooking-wise, and they helped get me out of that rut. They are indeed too expensive to get weekly, but if you're looking at them, it's often because you're in a headspace where the alternative you'd go for isn't supermarket + cooking, it's ordering a delivery.
I am still away from home on my walking holiday, might go back a little later than planned as I'm enjoying it so much...good thing I don't have pets or plants!

Here is some food:
Here is a view (the village below is called Colera but it's not pronounced like the disease):
And here are some cows! No sheep here, sorry:

@colouredlines Im so glad you're having a good holiday. That beige cow's got a bit of a face on, though.
I’d second that, have lovely hols and avoid that gang of Mardy cows!@colouredlines Im so glad you're having a good holiday. That beige cow's got a bit of a face on, though.
This is on our must do list too ........ looks amazing x
Not sorry I put someone on ignore ( rhymes with sax) my only regret is I announced it (was very grumpy) Haven't seen subsequent posts but from responses can see a leopard doesn't change its spots
You’re missing out tbh - that account has it all from patronising women to obsessing over Kate Middleton to desperately sharing an entirely made up salary. In the eternal words of dear heart allegra it’s awful gauche, darling(s).
Entirely off topic but we’ve got our first soft play session today!!!
We went last week. The maskless woman on the table next to me had her bare feet up on the chair
SHAN’T be in a rush to go back.
Does anyone have the article (and could post it) that Diana Henry posted in the Telegraph about the two illnesses she has had in the last year?
