Allotment and Edible Gardening Chayotes

My neighbour gave me these that she’d grown in her garden. I’d never seen or heard of them before. Apparently in the squash family.

Musicians, singers, songwriters, classic albums Marvin Gaye (Edited)

As a lifelong Marvin fan I loved all his stuff but these two rarer ones are under rated imo. What do you think? https://youtu.be/aaMFB5gnqV8?si=SPUgH4vPxN0C880U https://youtu.be/rtQl4XChQ90?si=hoiV3GvMtSoswK5L

Current Affairs and Politics The UK and Gaza (Edited)

Is anyone persuaded by David Lammy’s speech 10 days ago on the scenes of genocide live streamed into our homes every day for the last 20 months or do you think they’re insincere and hollow words in the face of public outrage and threats by International courts?

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cjr7l123zy5o So tell me this is not a genocide. And we can’t claim we didn’t know.

Romford Romford Market

I haven’t been there for quite a while. It was a thriving market in its day. Just wondered if it’s gone the way of many street markets with little variety.
