🌊 This is what a healthy coastline looks like!

At Point Farm, we helped protect over 1,300 acres of pristine land, including 1,100 acres of vital tidal salt marshes.

These wetlands are powerhouses of biodiversity, acting as nurseries for fish and filtering our water.

The answer, maybe, is that for every migrant allowed to remain we deport a flag clown. There's much fun to be had for them shinning up lamp posts in Kabul.

I used to have a copy of Harry Pearson's book "Clash of Crowns: The Battle of Byland 1322: Robert the Bruce’s Forgotten Victory". I recall it being a pretty comprehensive account.

I think I'd want to see the cash first! But after that, maybe yes, that's a lot of white wine! 🥂

I really don't see the need to exchange something that works for something that doesn't. But then I worked in IT a long time ago and maybe things have taken a different turn since then. 🤔
