I got this lot off from the Moor near the cart track on Cam Height (Stanage) last night. Farmer were gathering his sheep off the Moor and spotted it.
A few bevvies and cheese burgers on a couple of BBQ’s and a can of Lynx Ice deodorant. Makings of a smashing night out ont’ Moor.
I tried to do like a video about it but the wind noise + my technical incompetence + a general malaise from having to argue with idiots most of the day about not trashing nature and wildlife = an 8 minute long sweary rant which wouldn’t upload.
Maybe everyone’ll start doing the simple things right in the countryside and my blood pressure can come back down.
Maybe i’ll learn how to do the clips better and earn millions from a Netflix series called ‘The Ranting Ranger’.
Maybe knitting socks in a padded cell would be a better use of my spare time. //
If the levels of visitation continue to increase at massively unsustainable levels, a small % of those visitors / users continue to treat the landscape with disdain and the authorities continue to be defunded (and some of the largest nature facing organisations scale back any engagement other than selling cream teas and feed-a-lamb days), i don’t see any way forward.
We’ll end up with a landscape scale wildfire or other human caused decimation of nature after which everyone will give a fake shit about nature until Saturday when the next episode of Strictly airs and it’ll all loop round again.
And nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
