Almost two thirds of London is (potential) greenspace, including 24% of residential gardens! They can be an oasis for wildlife as seen in David Attenborough’s latest show Secret Garden. 🦔 🪶 🌱

I’m very fortunate to have access to one, about 21% of households don’t. But luckily London also has a ton of public parks to which access is more evenly distributed.

[P] There's only three kinds of people who mow/strim lawns: clinnically insane psychopaths; the blissfully empty-headed, who never have any thoughts about anything; and those who're forced to by the prior two types because otherwise they might lose their home and/or be hit with fines they can't afford.

I feel so bad for everyone who's the third type.
