| Thanks for stopping by to say, Hello, Howdy, Hi and Hey! |
| Species Guide – New Information Feature |
| This new Species Guide feature starts tomorrow. It is to be an A – Z directory of information index posts covering species in fauna and flora. It will run alongside and include references from the categories of Vermiculture, Composting, The Gallery and The Country Life Style Diary. The Diary is to begin later in October as a new community feature. Species Guide directory will also complement the content found within the category of Earthen Tales and incorporate the following series – The Garden Restaurant, Flora with Attitude, The Wildlifer, Willow Garden, The Allotment Plotters, Growings on the Wildside and Tales of the Apothecary. I will write about earthworms, birds, bugs and animals, flowers, herbs, vegetables, fruit, wildflowers and weeds. |
| Thanks for reading and l’ll see you next time. The Autistic Composter and Earthen Wurmin |

Hey Trisha, you and l have had this conversation before.
I agree QE II would have had a fantastic life, however she was 96 and had a good innings 🙂
I feel sure that her family didn’t help her health over the last five years and l feel she didn’t recover after she lost her husband last year.
I have to be honest, Suze is more fazed by this loss than l am.

Roly Poly’s? What are they in America?
I know in Australia they are a form of brushweed, and here in UK they are a form of confectionary, and also maybe a slang term for the woodlice.
Are they different also Stateside? 🙂

Omg is cutest big ❤️ love them ❤️
They sweet and gentle … they have a million legs and look like tiny little armored bugs … if you try to touch them … they curl up into perfect little balls – but will eventually trust you if you use slow moment and be easy 😉😊❤️
They will crawl up your hand/arm – but they are adorable and sweet ❤️
I love their little balls!
Oh maybe you know them as Pill Bugs?
Them ❤️
But that is hilarious about words meaning what 😄😄
The only one that sounded good was the confectionary as long as there are no Roly Polys actually IN it!!
The other 2, I am unfamiliar with – but sounds like things I do not want lol

Ah yes 🙂
The woodlice – pill bugs, they are cute, l was thinking of creating a small farm for them. They are often in my compost piles or at times in the wormeries. Yes l will be covering them.
Today’s episode is for flora and is about A – Alexanders – a weed 🙂

You call them “woodlice”? That sounds like bad name! Sounds like bad thing
They are not bad like lice – pill bugs is ok name – not as cute 🥰
Roly Poly fit them ❤️ cute adorable sweet and can roll ❤️
They CAN be everywhere sometimes.
But they are harmless ❤️ well we like them
During summer we used to collect Lady Bugs and Roly Poly’s ❤️ we don’t anymore
When I was a child – I used to collect lightening bugs at night ❤️ also love them 💡
Are you going alphabetical ?? Do I have to wait til R??

No, not alphabetical after the first episode – l am far too quirky for that nonsense. But l thought l should at least start it with an A not to look completely KKKrazy!
I can imagine thoughts of strangers as l passed them by in the street … “Oh yes, there he goes, that’s the chap who started a series, an alphabetical series no less, and the first episode was N?
Who does that as opposed to “There goes the alphabetical guy who started a series with A? At least he is not entirely Krazy!
I was going to do Blackbirds next which yes l know is a B, but l can do the pill bugs or Roly poly’s 🙂

Hey!!! There is no lasting thoughts
What up?
LikeLiked by 1 person
No, Lasting Thoughts was only a feature for three nights a week and the original line up was:
Monday to Wednesday Lasting Thoughts 7.45pm, then Country Encounters Thursday nights at the same time and a Worm World same time on a Friday.
The line up changed slightly when l opted to alter the schedule of Country Encounters from a weekly feature to a monthly feature.
So now from next week l will extend Lasting Thoughts to four nights a week.
