This’ll likely make me sound like a lunatic, but when I go abroad from the UK, hedgerows are one of the top 3 things I miss (the other two being beer and tea). They’re just so ubiquitous when travelling here, and they make the world feel a bit smaller.
As a wildlife photographer I probably take 75% of my photos of birds in hedges. I don’t have to camp out for hours - I just walk along the hedgerows aimlessly.
Also, if other countries don’t have hedges, what happens to the grotty pornography magazines that dwell natively in the hedgerows? Are they in some sort of meta-state of quasi-existence? A theoretical hedgerow porn mag?

- willyt 5y agoIt’s a thing. For some reason, country folk like to stash thier porn mags in hedges.

- alaxsxaq 5y agoProbably a reference only the British would get. Look up 'hedge porn'.
- cameronh90 5y agoOne of my earliest memories was on a road trip to the Devon with my parents. The family got out of the car and went up to a hedge to try and pet a cow, and there were porno magazines propped up along the hedge as far as the eye could see.

- Sophistifunk 5y agoOf course it's a thing... Where else did you guys find porn before you got modems?

Are they in some sort of meta-state of quasi-existence? A theoretical hedgerow porn mag? In other countries porn mags tend to nest in the woods. In japan i understand the endemic porn mags generally live under bridges, more rarely in small bushes.
- kwijybo 5y agoI live in Australia, which doesn't have hedgerows but does have large areas of native forest, normally called the bush. The bush (at least used to) contain unusually large amounts of pornographic magazines
