These look brilliant. I'm trying to do the same in the Holyland..(Holyland Community Garden). Any chance of a catch up?
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Happy Birthday! And great news about the Sea Grass. Got to love a bit of sea grass.
Wales saved 3 children's lives last year by reducing 30mph limits to 20mph everywhere. That would be much more effective than telling kids to 'wear bright clothing'. Let's do it!
It needs to be suitable for an unsupervised 12 yr old..super safe!
Loved it too!

'This has enabled the Department to reinstate a full road safety advertising programme'..it didn't work last time..and one person a week will die this year again. Do something new...province wide urban 20mph speed limits would work better.
'As road users we all have a personal responsibility to behave in a way that keeps ourselves and others safe' but car users have more responsibility because they are in control of a 1 ton machine that could crush a child walking to school. COME ON!
Three teenagers riding side by side, chatting and sharing gum because protected cycle tracks make this kind of freedom safe, normal and enables social life.
Looking forward to the challenge.
'Road Safety Messages' will not eliminate road deaths in NI. Blanket 20mph in urban environments would be a step forward. We're stuck at 50 deaths a year...doing the same old things will ensure we get the same 50 deaths every year.
Great news. Can you sort out the mess at Newry that leads to the amazing new Greenway to Carlingford.

Religion isn't history. (Yet? 😉) Maybe as part of a wider Philosophy Course? I don't think history teachers are going to run towards teaching RE too. Religion would maybe fit with ethics and citizenship.
I disagree...I think religion is a part of everyday life and children need to learn about it. However, the form of religious education in NI needs a big overhaul so that is education and not indoctrination.
Boatman - the first 50 reportedly makes a great present or holiday read, exemplified by this image of the book opened to show the story behind the Shipping Forecast puzzle, on display on Brighton beach. Reviewing Boatman - the first 50, Alan Connor (The Guardian's crossword editor and the brains behind many of BBC2’s quiz programs) says: "This is one to savour. Boatman's puzzles are witty and ingenious. It is an extraordinary pleasure to read how his unique mind works. The first 50 is a book I never knew I needed in my life. Gift it to yourself and to the word-lovers in yours". Hugh Stephenson (Alan’s predecessor at The Guardian) says: "This is a unique book of crosswords" and Henry Morris: "a Boatman crossword is like a theme park. Each daunting line is a rollercoaster ... He scares you witless. But you can't wait to do it all over again".
Boatman - the second 50 contains another 50 puzzles from The Guardian, with five bonus puzzles previously only available online and including puzzles, solutions and the ideas and stories behind them, exemplified by this image of the book opened to show one of the stories, which is accompanied by a picture of a large cow. Reviewing Boatman - the second 50, Gyles Brandreth says: "If you want a fiendish crossword, you want the best - which means you want Boatman, because he is the best" and Brian Bilston: "Cracking crosswords - each puzzle a delightful daily workout for the brain and a welcome tonic for the soul".
It's the Seasonal Reposting Competition! Repost this over the weekend, and on Sunday one lucky person will win a signed copy of one of my books. For you or the #crossword addict in your life: 50 fiendish @theguardian.com #puzzles and all the stories behind them:

Thanks for all you do. Ards and North Down Cycling Campaign
They say they are working with DfI to create active travel links...how is that going to work with Grand Central Station? Was consideration to active travel given when the Durham St Rd layout planned?
So. When will secure cycle storage be available at Grand Central? Why are full sized bikes not allowed on trains before 9.30 when the trains going to Belfast on the Bangor Line are less than 30% full before 7.30? And between 8.45 and 9.30?. They have spent all the money on ticketing so they must kno
