Gm nostrichers 👋🏻 An early start here has revealed a cold wet morning is on the cards 😒 It's going to be a grey drudging kind of day. Winter has arrived 😱 Have a good one folks👍🏻 #uk #brits #weather #cold #winter

Just got home from a humdrum day at the fiat mine to find a bag of goodies brought in by my neighbour.. Amongst them were this pair of beauties. Just got to sort a battery or solar set up and then it's playtime 🤣🤣 #uk #brits #meshtastic #lora #heltecv3

Sharing because every homestead needs a railway.. Unless you're on more than 10 acres 🤣 Here in the UK smallholdings are rarely more than 4 acres so it makes more sense than a Quad or side by side. I love it, it inspires me to get my shit together and get the dream project up and running.. #uk #brits #narrow #gague #railway #fun

Gm nostrichers 👋🏻 The wind is blowing from the north which means winter is here 😱 It's a bright start though, the sunrise is just touching a clear sky which makes a change from the rain.. Have a good one folks 👍🏻 #uk #brits #cold #winter

I was just talking about this guy yesterday. Our ancient ancestors were quite the thinkers. We aren't slouches either, but i think the difference is they built for glory. Either for themselves or their gods. We build to fulfill an ideology. They are not the same. And the limited but original channel. https://youtube.com/@wallingtonw?si=MN2LtTLeFO0cd93r There's probably more out there. Interesting guy. #uk #brits #megalith #ancestors #technique

Amongst the odd bit of pottering I've done today, i started recessing some diamond sharpening plates. They aren't my favourite sharpening system but they work well enough to maintain an edge as i work. A strop works as well too. Once the recess is deep enough i contemplated gluing them in but ive decided to go with magnets glued in to drilled holes. #uk #brits #sharpening #knives #diamondplates

Whilst in principle i agree with most stances these people take, i just can't get on board. The main issue i have is they don't offer or promote solutions. I've had conversations with these people about @Start9, @GrapheneOS, #bitcoin, #Nostr, #meshtastic. Side hustles, off grid living, local networks and skills based trading.. And blank looks.. They just seem to want to complain and expect someone else to fix it all. View quoted note →

We did get some flooding on the allotment but it wasn't too bad. It's been higher, sometimes covering half the plot so i dont mind just the bottom bit being under water. At least the shed is dry so all the work last year to get a new base built paid off 👍🏻 #uk #brits #allotment #flood #storm

Gm nostrichers 👋🏻 The rain has stopped and river levels are dropping. Going to pop out to my local raw milk farm to pick up a couple of litres. Then down to the allotment for another flood check. If we're dry I'll get some wood chips on one of the beds i'm leaving fallow next year. Then home and work on drying in the workshop a bit more. But first, finish off this coffee.. #uk #brits #allotment #coffeechain #flood #river #workshop

Been making some plum jam this afternoon. Tastes ok when ive been doing the cold plate wrinkle test 😋 #uk #jam #brits #preserve

Well, I'm pleased to report theres no flooding on the allotment so far 👍🏻 #uk #brits #allotment #rain #flood

Gm nostrichers 👋🏻 The edge of storm Claudia has passed but there is still a day of rain to look forward too.. 👍🏻 Off to do some shopping at my local market and then to the stores for bits i can't get elsewhere. Also need to check on my allotment. It's on a flood plain so most likely will be under water today and tomorrow. Otherwise, a house day beckons. Which will be quite nice 👍🏻 Have a good one folks... #uk #brits #storm #rain #flood #garden #allotment

The mian publishers of propaganda are scum at best.. but only because it floats to the top. There's currently a minor drama about the #BBC that will probably go nowhere. I haven't watched or even paid my viewing tax since the second battle of berkley and "Based stickman" days. As far as I'm concerned, the whole bunch of PDFile protectors can just sod off to obscurity.. When you deny this is happening in your country, and you berate and then ignore us for pointing it out, you dont get anything from me. Inculding sympathy. #uk #brits #propaganda #PDF #protectionracket #scandal #whitewash #grooming #torture #gang

For those that like being inspired to do good things here's some more happy monorail action. I'm certinly inspired to keep working towards that homestead/education centre dream. But first i have to get out of my own damn way..😁 #uk #brits #ireland #monorail #smallholding

Although its ownly temporary i could get used to the new hrs at the fiat mine... Its only the second day of doing 7am-3pm, but i'm getting a lot of "put off till later" jobs done 👍🏻 It's also nice not having to wind down for an hour after getting home. I actually want to get on and do stuff as soon as i walk through the door..😁 #uk #brits #fiatworld #GSD

Every homestead needs a mono rail 🤣 #uk #brits #Ireland #monorail #homestaed #smallholding

GM nostrichers 👋🏻 Early start to the day as my shift at the fiat mine has been changed to a 7-3 for the foreseeable future. On the one hand that means my time in the garden has been reduced, I've decided to seek the opertunuty in this rather than whine about it. There's a lot more things i could do so now i get to do them.. But first its #coffeechain 🤣 #uk #brits #operetunity #choice
