Steve Woolliams @tortoise46.bsky.social · 23/05/2026Spotted this Two banded Longhorn beetle Rhagium bifasciatum in a Scottish forest yesterday. 020 2
Steve Woolliams @tortoise46.bsky.social · 23/05/2026Wow, it is a beauty! I agree it looks very much like the 2 species suggested. Both unusual. Morimus is a non native - but can be found in or near areas of timber imports. Unlikely to breed here as from SE Europe? (But who knows with warming climate) Lamia textor is UK native but rare. 010 1

Steve Woolliams @tortoise46.bsky.social · 16/03/2025We use the local Co Wheels car club if necessary. 2 cars close to us and the system works well. Made the decision to go car free much easier. No worries about MOT,vehicle tax,servicing,repairs, insurance. (And the often overlooked cost - depreciation!) 020 2
Steve Woolliams @tortoise46.bsky.social · 16/03/2025We gave up our car 6 months ago, and don't miss it. Had a recent week in St Ives, Cornwall, return train trip was flawless, and sure beats the grind down the M5 and A30. 010 1
