Sorry can you shrink that down to bullet points please. :)

so much green!! beautiful!
what do you think the olives will do?
Still in the lap of the gods. April/may we will have a better idea. But it's a long time till November, anything could happen.

Ah, after 2 years of drought this is a beautiful sight. Nature is never beat, and we could do well to adapt as well to change so we can re-emerge stronger than ever.

That’s the shop vac that snorts the cocaine in the meme vids right?
I don't have a TV but that sounds a great use :)

Looking to buy a new vacuum cleaner… despite me trying to fix mine it’s old and falling apart… what does #asknostr think is a good buy?
Numatic, the domestic Henry range is outstanding. And on up to mega commercial beasts.

To be really sure it's a good oil, you can buy the ones with the AOP label (DOP in Italy). This guarantees that the oil is made in a region using a cold process, with superior olive quality from their...
Can't afford pesticides around here.
Most locals are pretty hands off for super nasty treatments but eco copper sulphate is used . Eco, Jesus!
They aren't shy with synthetic fertiliser when not sourcing local manure but other than that this area has very good olive oil.
Nothing out of a packet goes on our trees. They are healthy enough living with groundcover and the chippings from pruning time. Beyond eco, but without the damned certificate from the eco mafia you can't sell eco or bio labelled olive oil.
Funnily enough I couldn't even sell my olive oil yesterday. They thought 8€ a litre was too much. Ho ho, let them eat euros then!

The uk is a hell hole but we do at least get really olive oil, I had to check

Sorry to break your bubble but all IS lost in the UK, as that is not extra virgin olive oil.
The label says so!
it's second press olive oil cut with a bit of extra virgen first cold press.
EVOO would be plastered all over the label if it were so,, but it isn't.
Cold press is also a minefield as it includes from room temperature mid 20's, the average bona fide temp in the better mills, up to 60c.
Higher the temperature the higher the yield. It's the first question of the season when you look for places to press.
I believe the mills do between 3 and 5 pressings. Cold press, a second hotter pressing IE mostly your oil - and then various lantern oils.
Just have to buy direct from growers and not from a supermarket, at least not in a supermarket outside olive country.

I just want to tell you how proud and inspired i am by all of your courage in not being able to access tictok for 12 hours.
Do I get a prize for never going on ticktock? I hear it is very good at what it does, which is probably why it is disliked by those invested in the competition. Nostr social media of course is in a league of its own.

The Guardian and Gates, a more warped combination of so-say reasonable influencers would be hard to find.
His foundation are in the Guardian rather a lot.
The journalists there are losing their way as much as the entities they criticise.
And Gates a philanthropic nice guy. He's just like all the pretender psycho billionaires. Follow what he does not what he says.
