factJack Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-58570893 Quote National Grid site fire shuts down power cable between France and UK Quote A fire at a National Grid site has shut down a power cable linking electricity supplies between the UK and France. Twelve fire crews were sent to the site in Sellindge near Ashford on Wednesday, Kent Fire and Rescue Service said. National Grid said the site had been evacuated, and there have been no reports of casualties. National Grid ESO, which balances energy supplies in the UK, said it expects to "continue supplying electricity safely and securely". A power cable running under the English Channel was "not operating" after the fire, the National Grid said. Bit of a coincidence considering how pissed off france are about being "stabbed in the back" over the submarine deal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnigmaticWorld Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 First ever rare baby red squirrels born at Longleat Safari Park https://www.wiltshirelive.co.uk/whats-on/first-ever-rare-baby-red-5933974 'They are part of a UK-wide breeding programme for the rare, native mammal which aims to reintroduce the species back into the wild. The last red squirrel sighting in Wiltshire was in 1965 and they’re now virtually extinct in England, except for isolated populations on the Isle of Wight, Brownsea Island, Formby, the Lake District and parts of Northumberland.' Some wholesome news for a change. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamboozooka Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 how to get rid of grey squirrels The recovery of the European pine marten has been credited with reducing the population of invasive grey squirrels in Ireland. Where the range of the expanding European pine marten population meets that of the grey squirrel, the population of the grey squirrels quickly retreats and the red squirrel population recovers. Because the grey squirrel spends more time on the ground than the red squirrel, which co-evolved with the pine marten, they are thought to be far more likely to come in contact with this predator 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've actually had the pleasure of seing reds in their native habitat in Scotland and love to see stories where real efforts are being made to conserve native wildlife however with so many years of seeing a lot of those efforts being hijacked by climate change alarmists to further this agenda or that agenda i'm instantly on alert for the story behind the story so to speak I personally think they should leave the greys alone,they might be a valuable source of protein soon ! but dont eat the brains as they do in the southern u.s states,they carry a squirelly form of creutzfeldt jakob disease otherwise known as mad cow ,which,surprisingly is also getting some media time of late ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The British reds deserved to be wiped out their ancestors hid in trees like cowards. Facts the woke mob don't want to hear.

I only ever saw him as a pundit and loved how he'd regularly destroy Gary Newbon, who was widely despised by most West Midlands football fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's always disappointing when someone we like does something like this. I do think a lot of people are naive, rather than malicious in intent, but I also think that we all (who are of sound mind) have a responsibility to find out what the truth of any matter is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God bless him. One of the best strikers I ever saw play. Spurs at home was the fixture I always looked for first at the start of every season back in the 60s. It was always a great occasion. The 1967/68 Charity Shield was one the great games between the two and I remember it as if it were yesterday. Greavsie didn't score that day but Pat Jennings did.
