@fitheach In phone terms at sub £200, not that expensive. A Doogee S88pro.Would have paid less, but the rugged design and 10000mah battery that can go multiple days on a charge, well that's worth it 😀

@fitheach Lineage is what would be the struggle with these things. The rest is pretty good.Previously used Blackview, same deal.

Coffee before heading out.View from the kitchen window shows a dusting of snow at the house 😀A few days ago it was so warm we had doors and windows left open, all the time. 😝

Well. The balance finally tipped.Cancelled the TV licence direct debit.We like a lot of BBC content, and despite the flaws in it related to Scotland, we used *enough* to make it worth the money when you just ignore the rest.However, given the complete wipe out of all non Royal Death content yesterday to the extent it expanded to remove non-news related channels on TV and radio. No more.They have a dedicated complaints page, but it will NOT change anything, so cash is the tool to use 😡

@fitheach Yeah, we know 😀But we do like a lot of their podcast output, and had justified it on the basis it funded the likes of More Or Less and The Infinite Monkey Cage 🤷♀️

Wild garlic is up.Some nuts (cashews we had to hand) in the coffee grinder.Wild garlic leaves blended with olive oil using a stick blender.Mix the two together with more oil to get pesto consistency for fridge storage.Yum 😋

Sometimes life is fleeting.Time flows differently at scales big and small.Found both a bee and a damselfly that had used their allotment of time in this passing through.Couple of macro shots.

Found the cat has been sleeping in the compost bag in the greenhouse 😺 Would have taken a picture, but Loki scampered away as he was surprised by a trowel, and us by an unexpected cat.Wonder if there is a cat to compost ratio 🤣

We have no idea whatsoever what possessed our child to buy this as a gift to the household 😝Need to find a good decorative hook, and then it's going by the door as a reminder to all that venture outside 😉

When asked in class"Is violence an effective way of achieving changes in society?"one of our children in the past replied yes.Subsequently, they were held back and questioned under the initial stage of the schools PREVENT policy.For a question that was expecting a response to what should have been asked "Do you think violence should be used as a way of achieving changes in society?"How many autistic people get caught out by badly phrased and framed questions?https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/jul/07/staggeringly-high-number-of-people-with-autism-on-uk-prevent-scheme

Obviously, violence can be accepted as being effective and also something a person does not wish to engage in.Stupidly phrased/coded questions are going to catch out all sorts of people. Prevent was awful when we were trained in it when it started. Everything we have heard, shows it got worse as it developed. Now, we suspect, Westminster will taint autistic people with the *might be a terrorist* in the same way they have with others they do not like.

Oh, and let us be clear.Autistic people are capable of a full range of actions, from benevolence to terrorism. But, we *suspect* an unsubtle characterisation, in the way being coloured, Muslim, or a migrant, may well be deployed by some populist politicians.
