Xela Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I didn't even know it was pancake day today. Is it less of a thing now? Or is it just me getting older?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must come here one evening for one of my candle light suppers. We have the last of the over winter kale which we’re using up recently by shredding it in to curries. Chicken and Kale curry. Chick pea and kale curry. Red lentil and kale Dahl. Phwoar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinker Posted March 2, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted March 2, 2022 UK allows emergency use of bee-harming neonicotinoid pesticide https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-60579670 It's just unbelievable that these type of decisions are being made, have the rullers of the UK completely lost the plot? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted March 11, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted March 11, 2022 This is kinda low hanging fruit, but commemorative coins. The type you might see Michael Buerk advertising. They’re typically tied in to some significant event like the 200th anniversary of Trafalgar or the first time the Queen mother visited Ascot or something. I find myself wondering who’s buying them, are the people buying the “people’s war” (the Blitz) coin generally the same as the people buying a royal wedding coin? Someone who bought the coin commemorating the 70th anniversary of Dunkirk, would they feel the need to buy the coin commemorating the 80th anniversary? Also how many people buy them because they just like collecting them, and how many believe they’re a solid investment as an inheritance maybe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just an idea and it may not be exactly what you mean but when we went on the Wembly stadium tour I bought 2 coins commerating the first FA Cup and Englands 1966 world cup win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
