Thanks for the salad tip. We could just throw them in with the rest. Now that we have lettuce, sorrel, rocket & parsley coming out of our ears I suppose that could work quite well.
Is this bizarre weather pattern a repeat of bygone centuries?
Yes. I would argue there is nothing on this Great Playground which isn't repeating itself endlessly in a cycle. The Grand Solar Minimum cycle was seized by those who would have us be unprepared for what is coming (therefore reliant on them & compliant with the rules) and re-labelled as man made. But once you know you cannot unknow. And the rest is up to us :)
