Digging the dirtToday my window box, tomorrow the world More about the blog's author(s). We have been awaiting this announcement.
Source: Green Fingers We are fast becoming Proles, Orks, have it as you will, our individual The whole strategy of the British State has been that land is far more valuable employed by industry and domiciliary rather than farming (or even wild life come to that). What was more inevitable than there would come a point whereby we did not stand even a notional possibility of feeding ourselves. Now, with that conceit blown out of the water, we are to use GM crops, not because of taste or natural nutritional value, rather because it is the only choice. GM is over-blown and will reduce choice; the long term affect will be to decimate the gene pool. It is still the case that GM crops may grow in poor soil but any attempt to plough that soil will induce large-scale land erosion. It may be that France with her larger land mass does not find the CAP restrictive, but what of Britain? She has outstripped her capability, sacrificing independence and making us subservient, vulnerable, to world demand (as with oil and gas). There is a natural population level here and it is long been past. We have to come to some sort of realistic understanding of what sustainability really means. We are now absolutely certain that wealth is an illusory component, Britain has been over-paying itself for decades, all it took was one final surge from Labour to fire us into penury. Now, to even have half a chance at the comforts of past we are told that having a massive and increasing workforce will mean that we will have to make some sacrifices! What! To be able to afford industry and its massive population we are to live on the State diet? We are fast becoming Proles, Orks, have it as you will, our individual value diminishes by increases in quantity until we are all expendable. We have insisted on the industry of millions of hands rather than placing the emphasis on ingenuity. Rather than invent a machine that can crop produce, that may have a market elsewhere, we have decided to have thousands of pairs of hands. This is the sort of solution that one would have expected, as seen in Stalin's canal building projects or the flood controls for the Yangtze; it is like revisiting the Dark Ages. It is a quantum leap, the State defining what we will eat. Will we come to the pass whereby Mondays are bread, Tuesdays cheese, Wednesdays Tofu? Will the memory of recipes and choice soon be placed at the mercy of some overseas power with agricultural space holding Britain to ransom of supplies? What will it avail Great Britain when the money we produce from our declining and challenged industry can not buy food because of ideological barriers rather those of commerce? The vast housing projects and the determination that to stop immigration is somehow uncivilised or racist, or against our interests, in some inexplicable race for expertise and the fight for some illusory industrial pre-eminence, these are the fatuous arguments. Britain imports as many people as the United States and yet Britain has the land mass of one US State, Oregon. There is a logistical, common sense corollary. We do not even play to our strengths. had we decided that those places within Britain that had good land for agriculture were to be inviolate to development and building, instead concentrating any population expansion in the less fertile areas. But no. The adoption of Regional Government and its competitive mind-set , the determination to distribute immigrants, to disperse them, has ensured policies that are not too far removed from the scatter-gun. Even the smallest enclave now has to have an action plan for housing and industry despite their infrastructure. Such demands are making for great problems of communication, welfare care, industrial costs and the availability of amenities. There was a time when we had the Standard Castleford Unit of dysfunction and blight, now we are told that Castleford has been exceeded in all aspects of grossness of expectation by Middlesbrough, one can only imagine what Middlesbrough must be like. But will this stop the expansion of that place, will that stop the importation of people to that place? One cannot look at agriculture in isolation because the practicality of farming and its meeting of demand cannot be settled upon if the market is not defined. All we do by meeting some figment of a number on the output capacity for farming, increasing it, standardising crops, is that politicians will want to exceed demand, continually play it to the wire and beyond. Industry and the mass employment market is no hedge against the country's bankruptcy as we see today. Better that we seek equilibrium and live within our means and farming is a good place to start. Digging the Snow - Changing Climate
Source: Green Fingers Blasted weather - but we're loving every minute. Climate Change - Time to Act?
Interesting to read in the New Scientist an article that highlighted the state of denial with regard to climate change. Sceptics it seems are amusing themselves with global warming myths pretending there is no impact of climate change and lily livered governments are happy to propogate these untruths thereby shirking their responsibility and commitment to reducing CO2 emissions and addressing climate change. We've had a week of snow in the UK and I for one am delighted! When I was a lad two or three heavy snowfalls happened each winter. Schools didn't close - kids just arrived late covered in snow and keen to dry gloves on the hot water pipes. This recent batch of snow has been reported as being the "worst" for 18 years. How marvelous it was to see stranded commuters to try the long lost art of building snow-people (there should be a how to video for this). You dont have to be a climate dummy to appreciate what we would lose if global warming meant no snow ever again.

Source: Green Fingers Do your research and make an informed decision - check out what's hot and what's not. Be warned - not all online review sites are truly honest. Huge online retailers try hard to help hteir salesby including user reviews of the products. Although illegal it is apparant that soem cunning stunts are being pulled by brand insiders who go on to the sites, make a purchase of their own products and leave glowing reviews. However all is not lost. Blogs offer a personal opinion and can usually be trusted. Some sites rely entirely on good content to bring visitors who it is hoped might earn the site owner a few dollars from clicking the Google adverts. Dont be Fooled - Trust is Everything
One fantastic site is Hints and Things - a veritable cornucopia of information about everyting in the home. lately the site has added superb buying guides to help choose gifts on the run up to Christmas. The games console guide offers information about games and gaming - including Playstation, Nintendo Wii and Xbox For music fans you can read all about the latest iPods and discover what the differences between an iPod Shuffle, Nano and iPod Touch are. Both iPods and games consoles are very popular Christmas gifts and can be quite expensive. With proper research you should be able to save money and pick up the best deals - just remember - think BEFORE you spend. To report this post follow the permalink above Which Laptop?
Source: Green Fingers Like so many things there's just too much choice when it comes to choosing a laptop.
Once again technology has caughtup with the Dirt Digger and its time to upgrade my cranking old laptop which I failed to clean properly to a super dooper laptop that will work anywhere around the house. This article at least tries to highlight the key things to bear in mind when buying a laptop whereas this is a more transparant attempt to entice visitors to buy a laptop Looking for cheap laptops?Check different models and compare prices of laptops and notebooks including the latest models of Acer Aspire, asus eee pc notebooks, macbook, Toshiba laptops, HP Pavilion and Sony VAIO laptops. Should I Buy an Extended Laptop Warranty? The advice given says "Once you've decided on the specifications you require, try to keep within a set budget, and don't b e distracted by features and specifications that you don't need" which is all well and good but I can't help thinking that there's a better deal out there. Unwanted Software and Operating Systems on all Laptops"Look out for laptops that include the types of software that will suit your needs" - is the advice - ha fat chance. All the models I've come across currently include a trial Office 2007 which no doubt becomes a problem to disable and Windows Vista Operating System - by all accounts a pile of pooh.

Source: Green Fingers Thinking about a Brazilian - honest no nonsense information, to help you understand what a Brazilian is all about. thanks to Slimming blog for sharing then news that Brazillians can be a bit dodgey and offering honest no nonsesnse information, to help you understand what it's all about. It sounds as though many were only a close shave away from disaster before the fuzz stepped in. It seems many fell ill after greedily gobbling bogus diet tablets complaining of chest pains and "trouble down below" Doctor Doctor reach for your Stethoscope Of course you have to laugh - later in the post the reference is to "lose 30lbs in 3 days" clearly this was written prior toThe LehMON bank collapse and reports ofits global impact on jobs and money. Global Bank affects UK Jobs Market Who wants to work on a mraket anyway?? Fair enough in the eighties market stall holding was glamourised by the likes of Pete Beale and Del Boy Trotter but in this modern age of online shopping we all know where the best prices cna be found -virtuall shopping Malls like SaveBuckets - see the advert above - compare prices whilst shopping onlin.
