Am I the only one who gets a little annoyed by people who follow you and then unfollow you and then follow you again, presumably in the hope that the first three or four times that you didn't follow back were just oversights?
I only follow people and hashtags that interest me with no expectation of a follow back.

One of the joys of #sustainability and #seasonal eating is looking forward to the first tomatoes, courgettes and peppers of the summer. It must be so boring to eat the same thing all year round!
