All views expressed are my own.
After the US-UK trade deal, very glad I have my own supply of organic, grass-fed beef. Hormone-free and not routinely fed antibiotics to stimulate growth. They just eat the stuff cattle are meant to eat: grass.

People continued to use stone tools long after ‘prehistoric’ periods: their use in classical Greece is well documented but often neglected. Many tools were unmodified objects: a stick, a reed, a useful rock, a handy piece of broken pot. This is my rock for destoning olives. Works a treat!
