No, but this is not strictly an EU program. The UK and Norway both received funding, and there are heaps of other non-EU countries like Tunisia, Egypt, and Canada in it

It's part of Horizon Europe, which has a whole bunch of non-EU members who also pay into it

Thank you for adventuring responsibly! I'm glad you had a good time here

I think that this is more or less the approach I would take, but you shouldn't worry about the actual diameter of anything. It's not important, after all - if everything was scaled up twice as big, the answer would be the same. Just call the diameter of the cup a nice round number and then see how the hazelnuts compare to it. In this case I think there's about five hazelnut widths to the glass, so I'm gonna call the glass diameter 50, the nuts 10, and the glass height 80.

You'll need to change your formulae, though. pi*d is the circumference of a circle, but we need the area here, so pi*r*r (and then multiply by height for volume). That gives me 157,050 whateverunits cubed for the volume of the cup. For a sphere it's (4/3)*pi*r*r*r, so 524 for the hazelnuts. Now, I know that spheres don't pack perfectly into a volume, but I don't remember the factor even for optimal packing, so I'm just gonna take a wild guess and say that 70% of the internal volume of the cup is actually occupied by hazelnuts. That gives me... 209 hazelnuts in the cup. Which seems worse than your answer on a gut level, but I can count 86 visible ones so it's maybe actually not bad

I know, I'm saying that the UK gets the same colours at the same time of year. It should not have been weird to that audience

Anecdotally, UK wildlife does generally seem to be quite quiet compared to other countries. We've got talktative birds and the odd cricket and such, but that's about it. Everything else is in stealth mode

Wait hang on, the UK has heaps of trees that go that colour every year

To be fair it's very pretty. I get that one

OP, I want you to know that you are not alone, I am also a Brit who loves seeing all the wee reptiles scooting about when he visits places that have them. We barely have any here and they're fun tiny little dinosaurs!

Edit: actually I do have a proper answer too. I'm in Scotland, which has different trespassing laws to the rest of the UK. In Scotland you have a right to roam under which you can enter any outdoor land, other than that with crops and the immediate surroundings of houses, provided you do so responsibly. There are other reasonable exceptions but the point is that you don't generally need to check for access here. The rest of the UK is far more restrictive and I have found that visitors find it incredibly weird to walk through a field of grazing sheep or similar when trying to get somewhere

Folkrace is the most reasonable way to get into it actually, that's fair. It's not much of a thing where I am so I forgot about it as a format

Oh wow, I had completely forgotten about all the hydrogen car experiments! There was even an actual functioning hydrogen bus system for a little while in a city not too far from me

Thanks for the link, that was interesting
