Yeah, but because it's the House of Lords, it's all so the building owners can charge the swifts <i>exorbitant</i> rent.comment:www.metafilter.com,2025:site.210358-8766743Tue, 16 Sep 2025 19:40:22 -0800JHarrisBy: jenfullmoon

I generally have little to no patience for most of what Parliament does and even less for the House of Lords, but this? This I can get behind.comment:www.metafilter.com,2025:site.210358-8766791Wed, 17 Sep 2025 03:23:30 -0800Mr. Bad ExampleBy: Rudy_Wiser

Hedgehog highways...I hope they include all the loop-de-loops and springpads that speedy hedgehogs require.comment:www.metafilter.com,2025:site.210358-8766849Wed, 17 Sep 2025 07:47:49 -0800Rudy_WiserBy: jim in austin

My house is nicely set up with an open path that runs from the back around the side of the house and out to the front. It's also got a lot of ground cover. We often spot hedgehogs or their poop and have caught them on camera at night. I even accidentally kicked one a few years ago, and nearly hit another on a winter's night this year when it was scurrying along the path in near dark. I've even caught two of them in the act of love* on the grass outside my front door. (*Not as carefully as you have been led to believe.)
We even have a <a href="https://www.riversidewoodcraft.co.uk/products/golden-brown-hedgehog-house?variant=45551162327354&country=GB¤cy=GBP&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20445507014&gbraid=0AAAAAqCEFloUc7UzGbFMKH666nGtjvVC2&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI1amwq8bgjwMVQpJQBh057h_UEAQYDyABEgKkd_D_BwE">hedgehog house</a> in the undergrowth in our back garden but no residents as yet.comment:www.metafilter.com,2025:site.210358-8766948Wed, 17 Sep 2025 12:40:32 -0800biffa
¡°Why?¡± asked Larry, in his practical way. "Sergeant," admonished the Lieutenant, "you mustn't use such language to your men." "Yes," accorded Shorty; "we'll git some rations from camp by this evenin'. Cap will look out for that. Meanwhile, I'll take out two or three o' the boys on a scout into the country, to see if we can't pick up something to eat." Marvor, however, didn't seem satisfied. "The masters always speak truth," he said. "Is this what you tell me?" MRS. B.: Why are they let, then? My song is short. I am near the dead. So Albert's letter remained unanswered¡ªCaro felt that Reuben was unjust. She had grown very critical of him lately, and a smarting dislike coloured her [Pg 337]judgments. After all, it was he who had driven everybody to whatever it was that had disgraced him. He was to blame for Robert's theft, for Albert's treachery, for Richard's base dependence on the Bardons, for George's death, for Benjamin's disappearance, for Tilly's marriage, for Rose's elopement¡ªit was a heavy load, but Caro put the whole of it on Reuben's shoulders, and added, moreover, the tragedy of her own warped life. He was a tyrant, who sucked his children's blood, and cursed them when they succeeded in breaking free. "Tell my lord," said Calverley, "I will attend him instantly." HoME²Ô¾®¿Õ·¬ºÅѸÀ×Á´½Ó
