Potassium is radioactive, bananas contain potassium, hence why they are a good addition to compost.

Hello Martin,

I am holding my breath for you......

Maybe just the ones they grow in Iceland.

Bananas are radioactive - more sanely healthier when eaten unripe - less sugar (?).

Very interesting. For the likes of me (hobbyist in UK), peat is history and I've got no problem with the replacement.

It does sound like the energy situation - the pending UK government [1] is saying it will de-carbonise the grid by 2030 (and reduce energy prices as a result). Meanwhile North America is awash with low cost natural gas and any reductions in usage of fossil fuels in the UK will simply give countries outside Europe more fuel to burn.

[1] we're in week 2 of a 6 week general election campaign whose result is a formality.

It's a good thing I eat a banana every day, but only a 10% improvement per pill?

A little follow-up to the wet flower pics: we had 94l/m² in the last 36 hours. this water level is already at least 50 cm above my street level and 4m above normal, so it would reach my front door ("Hochpaterre"), but for now the dike is holding. Rain slowed down but likely won't stop until another 6 hours...

Atheists don't pray, Engineers calculate and watch the levels upstream. Bonus points if you know the flooding plans: the other side of the river will drown first if there are no failures of dikes and canal backflow flaps... Still, I'm feeling uneasy.
