Mrs Hedgehog lives in our garden and had at least 3 babies last month. She brought one back round for food tonight though!1yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/GardeningUK

Heads up for any U.K. collectors. LIDL has some massive cacti in stock currently. Got this huge F. latispinus for only £5. They had lots of other different species too.3yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/cactus
If you zoom in you can just about see a wild lesser-spotted office chair. I didn’t want to get too close in case I spooked it; might have had young with it.2yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/CasualUK
Haven’t even made a dent in the harvest yet. This is probably only 1% of what’s on our plum tree. 😵💫1yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/GardeningUK
So we ended up in cacti heaven today! 4500+ species in one place in a personal collection!! 😵5yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/cactus
Front garden was looking pretty amazing in the sun last week. Shame it’s been miserable this week so far! 😂🤦♂️2yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/GardeningUK
If you like to go fishing down at the River Don don’t be an arsehole and leave shite like this tangled up in the river! I had to pull about 50-odd metres of this out of the water complete with hooks/weight and bait still attached. 😠3yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/Aberdeen
Family photo time! Well a small part of the collection at least, under their grow lamps for the winter.3yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/cactus
What is this medal for and what country is it from? Came with a lot from an auction with lots of Chinese medals.6yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/whatisthisthing
Been told these are parts of a Rolls Royce Merlin engine, possibly the carburettor? Grandmother made them during the war and kept two after it ended but nobody knows anymore what parts they are. We were alway told she worked on Spitfires.5yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/whatisthisthing
Any ideas what this is? Made of glass(?) and will stand upright. Has a swastika image and what looks like an image of a memorial or plaque on the front. Illegible text at the bottom in German I assume. There’s a pinhole at the back as if it’s meant to have something stick up at the back.5yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/whatisthisthing
Picked up this guy recently and it was labelled as Opuntia “beaver tail” which I’m guessing means basilaris? It doesn’t look like one to me but the parent it came off in the nursery I got it at was pretty close.5yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/cactus
Any idea what this is? Has a tiny hole in the narrow end and the big end is marked Brades BNT and unscrews to reveal a hollow section. This contained a tiny plug made of cork with a metal spike on one side. Looks like it’s meant to be filled with some sort of liquid.5yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/whatisthisthing
What’s this makers mark on the bottom of an old china cup. It has oriental style images on the outside of the cup if that helps.6yr ⋅ lordsteve1 ⋅ r/whatisthisthing
