A tip for all you amateur foragers who like to supplement their commercially grown produce with sustenance from the natural world.
This is something found in the wild at this time of year, “Chicken of The Woods”: https://www.wildfooduk.com/mushroom-guide/chicken-of-the-woods/
This appeared over night on our normal doggie walk this morning.

Which post Phil?

You need to reply to the post that might be borked and mention me.

If you’re talking about the post immediately above yours, again I think that is displaying correctly and is to do with the type of tweet embedding that Twitter uses.

The issue we’re trying to track down is where you get an error saying (something like) media cannot play.

Just turned TV on in time to see someone called Van Dijk??? score for Saints against Inter Milan.

Coincidentally in today’s news they are going to build a new San Siro next door to the current one, which will be demolished. Glad I went.

Saw Inter Milan vs Napoli 6 or 7 years ago and it is by far the best non-saints game I’ve ever been to, atmosphere was totally mental :lou_lol:

Same here - the haunting “Oh when the Saints” ringing around the stadium was incredible.

Since 1995, I have always had a PC and those machines have always been quite tidy. Lockdown changed all this. When Gingora started working from home, I selflessly donated my desktop PC to her new cause and have been without a decent PC since.

Before you get too sad for me, know that one of the benefits of selflessly donating your PC is that questions like “Ginge, can I buy a new PC?” are met with very little in the way of resistance.

I’ve bought a new PC. It should be here within the week.

Genuine question*. Are you okay?

* Not really a genuine question. Just an illustration of how annoying the poundshop Lorraine Kelly act is.

Mu-ha! :smiley:

Well I am not okay.

I have drained my last beer until the missus gets back from TESCO. These are tough times.

When she gets back, my liver will probably not be okay.

I’ve seen the “You okay, hun?” stuff. It’s normally a response to the Vaguebookers on Facebook. I have discovered the wonder of the unfollow feature lately.

It’s basically a way of saying “fuck off, but I don’t want to be rude about it”.
