Every spring during marsh tit surveys I check on the Monks Wood bottle, now lain here undisturbed for at least 72 years, but prob since WW2 when a pigpen was here. Huntingdonshire Brewery closed in 1954. Still a few smashed snail shells: Song Thrushes have used it an anvil for generations.

Decided to give away this entire pile of my 2022 book Notebook for the price of postage today. If you can pay more, great. If not, no problem. Pop a reply below if you'd like one. It's a short, silly book, but sometimes a bit serious, too, and people tell me it's a good easy gateway to my writing.

Hi. Do you think it’s ridiculous that wealthy foreigners could potentially donate huge sums of money to British political parties and would like Labour to maybe do something to close the loopholes that allow this? Then maybe sign this petition:
petition.parliament.uk
Petition: Tighten the rules on political donations
We want the government to: Remove loopholes that allow wealthy foreign individuals to make donations into UK political parties (e.g. by funnelling through UK registered companies). Cap all donations ...

I am delighted to report that a shitpost I wrote a year or so ago in response to the question 'who was the first person to boil an egg?' is now being repeated by AI-penned spam pages
Do you know when soft boiled eggs came out?
Starting from the famous joke " who came first, the egg or the chicken?" , interestingly, we know the answer to that question because the hard-boiled egg is a surprisingly recent phenomenon.

Although many of the classic styles of egg preparation, scrambled, poached, fried and so on, have been well known since time immemorial, it wasn't until 1974 that a hard-boiled egg appeared.The discoverer of this technique, Marvin Boyle-d'Eigg, was heating a pan of salt water for his own amusement, when a chicken egg he was holding in his beard fell and sank into the boiling liquid.

It took a few minutes to retrieve the egg and the rest is history. Boyle-d'Eigg immediately took steps to register the eponymous patent for his new process, but it is not known whether he ultimately succeeded.

Leaving behind this unique history, it is time to talk about how long to boil soft-boiled eggs, as we know them since we were children and our grandmothers used to prepare them for us.

See how long the soft-boiled eggs takeWho was the person who invented the boiled egg?
The discoverer of this technique, the eponymous Marvin Boyle-d’Eigg, was boiling a pan of salted water for his own amusement when a hen’s egg he had secreted in his beard shook loose and became immersed in the boiling liquid. It took several minutes to retrieve the egg, and the rest is history.
