Lets B Avenue Posted 14 September, 2019 Posted 14 September, 2019 England has around half the world's population of Bluebell flowers. Who has the other half?
badgerx16 Posted 14 September, 2019 Posted 14 September, 2019 Is it not that we have 50% of the world population of the Common Bluebell, otherwise known as the British Bluebell?
egg Posted 14 September, 2019 Posted 14 September, 2019 England has around half the world's population of Bluebell flowers. How are we doing with daisies? I like a daisy.

benjii Posted 14 September, 2019 Author Posted 14 September, 2019 A lot of them must be in the New Forest, right? This is the short of thing we need to use to convince players to join. Major selling point.
Weston Super Saint Posted 14 September, 2019 Posted 14 September, 2019 Sadly, the OP has posted fake news.... https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/news/march-of-the-bluebells/008808/ It is estimated that the UK has up to half of the world’s total bluebell population.
Plastic Posted 14 September, 2019 Posted 14 September, 2019 The UK has around half the world's population of Bluebell flowers. I did know that. The Atlantic seaboard is the only place the common bluebell grows. Did you know, that if Earth was the size of a basketball, all the water in the world would amount to two teaspoons.

Jonnyboy Posted 14 September, 2019 Posted 14 September, 2019 The world’s biggest buttercup is over 5 foot tall Why bring yourself into the conversation?

Unbelievable Jeff Posted 15 September, 2019 Posted 15 September, 2019 "Mitsu" means 3 in Japanese, and "bishi" means diamond.
whelk Posted 15 September, 2019 Posted 15 September, 2019 Why bring yourself into the conversation? You have a pet name for me?
sadoldgit Posted 15 September, 2019 Posted 15 September, 2019 We have bees coming out of the cracks in our lawn. Never knew they lived underground.
doddisalegend Posted 15 September, 2019 Posted 15 September, 2019 We have bees coming out of the cracks in our lawn. Never knew they lived underground. Probably solitary mining bees rather than honey bees.
benjii Posted 16 September, 2019 Author Posted 16 September, 2019 Probably solitary mining bees rather than honey bees. They are highly unionised though.
sadoldgit Posted 16 September, 2019 Posted 16 September, 2019 They are highly unionised though. Funny you should say that, there is one with a passing resemblance to Arthur Scargill.
sadoldgit Posted 16 September, 2019 Posted 16 September, 2019 Not heard of miner bees before. They have been here for 3 days now. Is it usual for them to appear in the Autumn?
Ohio Saint Posted 16 September, 2019 Posted 16 September, 2019 Freddie Mercury, in the early 70s proclaimed himself to be as gay as a daffodil.
Tamesaint Posted 17 September, 2019 Posted 17 September, 2019 We have bees coming out of the cracks in our lawn. Never knew they lived underground. Most bees, apart from honey bees, live close to the ground or underneath it.Bumble bees love compost heaps and other rough bits of ground. Some bumbles make homes under garden sheds or patios. In a few weeks , once it gets colder, they will disappear. Apart from honey bees, it is only the queen bees who survive the winter. The rest of the colony will die out.

sadoldgit Posted 21 September, 2019 Posted 21 September, 2019 I once had a wee in a urinal next to John Humphrys.
benjii Posted 21 September, 2019 Author Posted 21 September, 2019 Why was John Humphrys next to the urinal?
Manuel Posted 24 September, 2019 Posted 24 September, 2019 All mammals can swim. Well nearly all, there are two species that can't but you'd never guess which. Think of any mammal you want, it can swim and there'll probably be a youtube clip of them doing so.
