Felicia Grags. After an hour and a quarter walk. I find the romantic crags i'd hoped for is a quarry!

Still, some nice scenery on the way, and i made friends with one or two midges.... blood brothers you might say. Mine mostly.
Just got back home. I'm buggered as my father used to say. 15000 odd paces and some up and down too.
I will get that left over Chicken Bhuna that I made yesterday and do some more rice to go with it.
I think it will go down well with a couple of cold beers from the fridge.

Water isn't a scarce natural resource at all. It is abundant. The water on planet Earth is older than the Earth itself and older than the sun. The planet has 1,386,000,000 cubic kilometers of it. Fresh water is about 2% - 3% of that total. 68% of fresh water is ice tied up at the poles and in glaciers.AI Is Accelerating the Loss of Our Scarcest Natural Resource: Water

The headline quoted is nonsense. It may be scarce in some regions, but it is not generally the case.
In addition to the stupid over statement, water used for cooling huge data centres need not be wasted. It can easily be cooled and re-used. Shabby journalism, aimed at getting clicks.
Beer yeast could be used to create drinking water on Mars
Beer yeast, which is being used to remove toxins from water to make it safe to consume, could be used in deep space projects in the future.

"Election betting: Fifth Tory investigated in growing scandal"
We should never have entertained deporting that Assange fellow for reporting on terrible abuses by American forces. That deportation treaty is ridiculously one sided. We could not get the motorcyclist killer Anne Sacoulis back here - not for love nor money. We had to go through a complete rigmarole of 'trying her' by video link - her - safe and sound in the United States, and only that after a massive amount of badgering. US citizens are pretty much entirely off limits, but UK citizens are shipped out all the time and often for notional affronts to the US, by people who were acting here in the UK. The Nat West Three are one example and Mike Lynch who lately was acquitted in the USA after spending a year, tied up there, for selling his company, Autonomy to Hewlett Packard, who then got buyer's remorse about the price they paid, and used the US Dept of Justice to ruin his life.
How can the US have a man transported to their jurisdiction because Hewlett Packard didn't do proper due diligence about the value of his company? He was lucky and brave, because the usual thing that happens is that the DOJ make an offer - Plead guilty to this charge or we will try you on one with a thirty year jail penalty. Mike Lynch stood firm and won in a US court, but he might not have done.
That Labour Party treaty needs to be cancelled. We almost never get anyone sent back the other way, but many UK citizens are sent to the USA and their horrible prison system. Blunkett did this! No one is safe here. Blunket also signed off on that Labour Party bill on indeterminate sentences which has left people in jail for more than a decade for petty crimes. They can't get out unless they prove they are completely reformed, but there is no proper mechanism for doing that, so they rot.

It's a good day this. Took my 28 year old, £650 Honda CB250 the 30 mile round trip down to Hexham for 8 am this morning to get its MOT.
The 'golden' tester, IAN came out with it half an hour later (I was hanging about outside biting my fingernails) and as usual, he nodded, and said,
'It's spot on again'.
Great bloke that. Sad to say, he is getting near retirement age, so he will be leaving sooner or later.

Yes - I always think beer yeast improves water. Not so sure it makes it 'safer' though.
Fully agreed all aspects, it's one of the reasons I've never voted for New Labour, nor will I for this latest variant on July 4th, despite being a socialist at heart.
