I have the desire to potter about with plants and get my new raised fruit/veg bed sorted out but apart from the blistering temperatures I've picked up a completely flattening virus from a colleague so I don't have the energy.

Hoe de sloten in Nederland verdwijnen
Jaarlijks verdwijnen duizenden sloten in Nederland, blijkt uit onderzoek van de Volkskrant, en dat gebeurt deels illegaal. Regels om de waterkwaliteit te verbeteren, geven boeren juist een prikkel om sloten dicht te gooien, en gemeenten handhaven nauwelijks. Wie daar kritisch op is, kan soms zelfs op intimidatie rekenen. ‘Als jullie terugkomen, druk ik met een shovel jullie auto in elkaar!’

I hate poor writing in legal documents.
