We’ve decided to document trying to get more out of our #nodig #allotment this year.. it should be fun! m.youtube.com/@diggingforv... Likes and subscribes very much appreciated.. ☺️

Cracking interview with @luketonge.bsky.social around ai in the creative industry. undomag.substack.com/p/we-used-to... 🙏

Well worth a read!

Anyone at Birmingham Design Festival today? #bdf2025

Well would you believe it.. actually needed some threaded bolts for some ikea furniture and the shed tub of random screws came up trumps! 🤣 this is why we never throw things away.

These are my random brassica beasts @royandtanyaorganic.bsky.social 🤣 I think a cauli and a sprout in the pictures, a couple of others in there. So pristine - not a mark on them and beautiful when water falls and beads on the leaves. 🥰

Spent the afternoon finally learning how to bleed the brakes on my bike - did the front brake diligently referencing instructions then got blasé with the rear and had to do it twice 🙈.. rewarding myself with some tasty beer.

We have used the “crystal maze” dome for 3 years at the allotment but never sighted it at the front of the plot… it’s got quite a bit of attention this year as it’s a bit different to a green house 😂 youtu.be/rH-NrmeU9cU

Cracking little exhibition down in Stirchley if you are a Brum local featuring liskbot and Mose78 👌

Help us put solar panels on our woof...I mean roof! Our share offer to decarbonise the Warehouse is open - www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/decarbonis... Invest from £50 to help us transition our community building to 100% renewables & get a say in how our co-op runs. Graphic design by @sushkelly.co.uk

Nothing like taking on a full time role to boost your sales funnel - had more freelance work/project enquiries in the last week than in the whole of Q1. 😅

Well it is mildly annoying that my in laws pristine iPad 4 that they just want to watch iPlayer and itvx on is pretty much like a brick. Stuck on ios10 so can’t download apps and the itv.com website doesn’t work on whatever version of safari they are stuck on. 😩

A cracking day out - super talks and what a venue 🥰 Lovely to see some people from here in real life too… till the next one!

@scott.is I spent most of your talk thinking of home as your accent sounded very much like you were from the Isle of Man 🇮🇲 🤣 (great talk btw)

I thought I missed a note about the dress code for #sotb2025 but it’s a graduation ceremony going on at the same time.. ppl looking sharp!

Anyone I know on here going to State of the Browser tomorrow?

Raising money for Alzheimer’s research/support is such a worthy cause.. when it comes knocking at the people close to you you quickly realise just how awful it is for everyone concerned! 🙁

We got the green house up! 🙌 12 mins of relaxing allotment based stuff… if that’s your vibe. 🤣 www.youtube.com/watch?v=gj2l...

It’s taken way longer than normal to read this - either because I was just reading a few pages before bed each night or - because there is a lot to take in and grasp.. #Umwelt - what a word! 😀

No Keith Dunn on here only on X.. tho have found a mirror of his posts from there if you enjoy the weirdness that is the Barkley Marathon! bsky.app/profile/Keit...

I used a container query to solve a real world website problem today for the first time. Not quite the 😮 of using flex for the first time but we have been rather spoilt with css of late. 🥰 bloody love #css

I cycled to the city for a meeting with an agency today and realised it’s the first time I’ve done that commute for over 2 years! It all felt so familiar and I had forgotten that sense of place you feel going to and from somewhere rather than the commute from the kitchen into the front room. 🙃

Following on from our #bumbleBee chat @sturobson.com @deanleigh.bsky.social found one on its back on the lawn - gave him a little snack and he was sooo cute! Had a good old drink of sugar water before flying off revived.

Raising a glass to Alice Batham on International women’s Day - thou brew’st good ale 🥰 (cheese and onion bap is a legendary combo)

This little fella was way more interested in the camera than the robin nest box it was pointing at.. 😅 Faux spring plot update and some broad bean action. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIMG...

Ooof would like to imagine it was something cooler.. 🤣

How hard can taking a greenhouse be!? Tbf it’s not super hard but took waaay longer than I expected! youtu.be/TPE5PULyoKg?...

Best song to start the day on with that bass turned up loud! 🥰😈 the S the U the P the E the R open.spotify.com/track/4G2xz6...

To keep up busy between planting garlic and getting ready for proper seed planting we made a robin bird box to celebrate national bird box week! www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdZW... In other exciting news we may have snagged a greenhouse for the plot! 🥰🥰

What is this? I thought maybe related to crochet or something but literally don’t have a clue. The hole in the end only goes in about 10mm to the opening on the side. The rest of it is solid.

@yorkshiretea.bsky.social good to see you over here… could you do us a solid and work out a way to make your loose leaf tea packaging recyclable? Would make my favourite tea pretty much perfect. 👍

My first zine event is taking place at Kerroo Brewing on the Isle of Man!

I always find this old scale model of the Elan Valley fascinating- for some reason it gives me proper childhood vibes, I think it reminds me of a TT pitch and put I used to play on as a kid back in the rock 🇮🇲

Birders of Bluesky - were these guys fighting for territory do you think? Seemed a bit aggressive for a mating ritual! 😂

Interesting listening to Gary Kemp on BBC this morning.. doesn’t think AI can/should do lyrics and songs yet was happy to use generative AI to make his 3 videos… 🧐 funny how people only see through their own lens.

Those dark iOS icons were bothering me!

When in the wiggle mode, hit edit then configure and the choose light icons. Must default to automatic now.

Can you have dark theme but not dark icons as these look horrendous since I updated iOS 🥲

This week a small job turned into a bit of an epic.. we did end up with a load of lovely compost tho! youtu.be/9Ldr2CxBT40

Today I learned shopping trollers have a security lock if you go too near the exit! Thought my wheel was jammed and carried my trolly round.. told the checkout guy it was knackered and he explained.. just me knackered then!

Gotta send my Apple Watch off for a new battery and it’s really made me realise how much I rely on it for timers / alarms and paying for stuff.

This week we built a hot bed in the polytunnel and worked hard laying wood chip paths.. youtu.be/68KA8OrqwSs #allotment

Space raiders- what a bar snack!

Despite not liking or listening to them I have somehow woken with Come on Eileen as an ear worm 🐛 🫣🫣 only bonus is I have passed it on to my daughter so she can suffer too.

A week or so into the new year.. gotta keep pushing forward on the #allotment learned about composting and #bokashi and had our first plant casualties after the really cold snap! 🫣 www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUCF...

Regretting deciding to clear out my desk drawers… so much broken or redundant tech hoarded.. 2 Pebble watches! I am such a hoarder… need to get past this!

Totally forgot i signed up for a loan of a thermal camera from @octopus.energy so it was a surprise when DpD dropped it off - easy to spot that my wife had sneaked the underfloor heating on in the kitchen! Can confirm dog is toasty curled up on the bed too. 😂

Anyone got a working mini disc player? 😂😂 Found mine along with band mix tapes from 1000 years ago but the player just errors 😒 would love to hear them!
