CyberPingu posted:What's going on? Yvette Cooper's bill yesterday, which won by a single vote and would require the prime minister to seek an extension from Europe, was a new bill and is now going through the Lords. A handful of brexiteer lords have scheduled amendments to the bill in order to allow them to speak and require them to vote, thereby delaying if not filibustering progress on the bill.

How hard is it to grow veg in your back garden? Not because of Brexit (It's too late to start thinking about that), but I have a spare section in my garden that's growing nothing but weeds. I have thought about veg (and herbs?) before, but I don't want to get myself into something that'll suck up a huge amount of my time.

Put old veg in ground, dig more veg up later. You can make a planter if your soil is bad.

Potatoes are the easiest. My back yard runs east-west and only has a thin strip of sunlight running along the fence though. I've considered a vertical garden for the fence itself. The other wall is one of those huge factory walls.

Get an allotment, grow fruit and make jam like JC e: Basically it's a trade off between how hard things are to grow, how delicious they are and how cheap they are to just buy. Potatoes, onions and stuff like that are cheap as poo poo anyway so why bother for the relatively small quantities you'll be growing. sebzilla fucked around with this message at 18:27 on Apr 4, 2019 |

sebzilla posted:Get an allotment, grow fruit and make jam like JC Allotments are enormously harder than gardens in my experience, as adjacent allotment holders will run wailing to the management at the first sight of a weed on yours. Seconding fruit suggestion, and above all Jerusalem artichokes, which require no care beyond stopping them take over your garden. Most other veg way cheaper than growing your own.

They require basically nothing and make tasty stuff happen

Cheers all. So they need a lot of sun? The patch is partly shadowed by my fence, for a good part of the day, though there are plenty of flowers (and weeds) that are growing by that fence.

Guavanaut posted:lol, I did consider that. It'd be much easier if the sun was due north because then the high wall would be the bit getting the sun, but I can't change that one. I saw a fairly ingenious solution using a bellows set up where heat expansion allowed them to open and close over one axis to chase the sun

It's amazing that May filled a bunch of ministerial vacancies today, and yet still hasn't got anyone to be disabilities minister. Presumably because they all know full well how hard the disabled are getting hosed by their own policies and none of them want to carry the can for it.

That's the kind of thing that you only really need to work when it's hot and sunny.

I have friends and colleagues I disagree with politically (not many, mind, because I don't associate with horrible people in general). None of them are fascists and I would not continue to be friends, family, or colleagues with a fascist. Nigel Farage is a fascist, and LBC givign him a platform automatically makes them complicit.
