The person in the camp who makes the food is always my hero. What a wonderful post riverflows. Read it, enjoyed it, now I want curry. :)

Small world matey. One of my mates was out at that one I believe. Great post. Great to jump on and check in and see your latest adventures. :)

I just jumped on hive for the first time in a while to see what you've been up to and saw this post. Damn Bash, it sounds tough. I hope things are better and you're making a speedy recovery my friend.

That was an enjoyable one. I was a jumped up grammar school kid before we moved to the states. A year of sound ass whoopings by some of the redneck boys I went to school with (most of who I was related

Well matey that sucks for sure. However you do now have a chance to gobble up some good literature, binge watch some shows, and rest up till your hearts content. When you get better you'll appreciate a

Oh boy... the madness begins for you matey. Settling in is always a long painful ordeal. Doing a move right before Christmas is doubly difficult. Hope it goes well and sending a massive Merry Christmas.

Mate... you're house sounds bloody mad from your write ups. Lol. As always a good read. Needed a chuckle with me night cap, and boom delivered.

Busy my end my friend. I've finally managed to complete the purchase of a woodland. The market has been incredibly competitive there, but I own one now. It's a rewarding feeling. But that and life in general

Opening up a new laptop from the box is always a great feeling isn't it? I recently bought a drone and got the same sensation. New toys! lol. Great post as always matey. Hope you're keeping healthy and

As always brilliant word smithing matey. I saw the wine crisis comin months ago and dropped a some cash on a bulk buy at M&S. One of my mates I shoot with has a son who works there, so we got him to

What a lovely well written read that was @livinguktaiwan. I love sincere posts like these as it often shows the best of the types of folks we have here on hive. It's always a treat to pop by your blog

Whoa... damn dude.. In truth I am unaware of anything going on in these parts nowadays past what I can make out from the random fur and feathers that seem to be flying. In regards to private chats, as

Good to hear from you my friend. Just got your comment so sorry about the delay in reply. You can always feel free to hit me up anytime to shoot the breeze as you well know. From time to time I jump on

Well of course I've dialled back the less seedy browsing! After all you quit posting PK so there's no material . Lol. In all reality I do occasionally view seedy content... I mean real dirty stuff. The

Well that's some inspiration in a short post. The almost cucumber like freshness of the nettle must have really gone well with the Indian spices. I have never thought of doing that before, but I will now.

Who said my summer wasn't great? Lol. I'd say it's been about usual my friend. Ups, downs, all the stuff that comes with being alive in this crazy age. The garden went ok all things considered though.

That is one stunning set up riverflows. In regards to the purple stem.. Years ago I got some really good formations using calcium enrichment. Not over the top, but a little extra. Wonderful post as always.

Good catch. I caught a six foot one on a little zebco push button when I was a kid using minnows for bait. They bite like a shark normally when they hit. Grab the bait and make a run for it, rather than

Looking good. Good thing you have got folks lending a hand. Big prep jobs done solo can be crushing. You've got a beautiful spread there btw. :)

Yeah he's an English Robin. We have a lot of them that now call our little garden home. We did a lot of cat proofing (scent deterrents and the like) and corvid culling back in the early spring so it's
