Some very good info on the Royal College of Anaesthetists website for kids having an anaesthetic (Dennis the Menace features!). Furry toys are usually fine to stay with your wee one. Best of luck and sure all will be fine. www.rcoa.ac.uk/patients/pat...

@privateeyenews.bsky.social OK this isn't weird now... the Grim Brandreth strikes again, as predicted a month ago ☠️
Private eye article from early September - part of a running joke of  Gyles Brandreth being the Grim Reaper, as several previous people became deceased shortly after meeting him. This time spookily predicting the death of Jeffrey Archer which was announced today, RIP.

Great story! This was in a children's poetry book which I used to read to my son... he was about 3 and never understood why Mummy would burst out laughing at this one!
Poem: Meg Merrilies by John Keats..."and with her fingers old and brown/ she plaited mats of rushes/ and gave them to the cottagers/she met among the bushes 🙂

Great pic! They are pretty large and definitely unpleasant in person; a nice lunch in an outdoor cafe was spoilt (we left in the end 😬)

Yes that's true... fuel costs and general job insecurity (very few "jobs for life") are a big thing for many; also at the back of your mind the thoughts of the Iran war causing future worsening prospects eg. potential jet fuel shortages affecting summer holidays (if you're lucky enough to afford).

Looking on the brighter side of life in #Edinburgh, up Blackford Hill, lovely views to castle and Arthur's seat 😀 Cheering news from Hungary today.
View from top of Blackford Hill, Edinburgh, sunny spring day.  Looking north towards the city and beyond to Fife over the Firth of Forth; Edinburgh castle on left of picture and Arthur's Seat, the hill on the right of the picture. Yellow flowering gorse bushes in the foreground.

Asked by my boy to do the painting on his models for his new hobby...Starting to quite enjoy painting these bloodthirsty wee dudes 🙃 #Warhammer40k
Warhammer models of larger "psychophage" (about 4 inch tall) and 2 smaller "tyrannids" (1.5 inch tall). Lots of tiny teeth to paint inside the mouth of the big one!

These people are poison. They will unleash racist thugs on the streets of this country and call it security. They will subjugate us to the US and call it patriotism. They must be stopped. There is no more important task in politics.

Another beautiful Shchedryk performance amidst ruins. It was set in what used to be a DTEK thermal power plant — now destroyed by russia. The contrast between russia’s destructive nature and the Ukrainian will to create beauty even in the darkest times is palpable.

Looks like Lucy and Yak have a shop in Manchester, the one in Bristol I was in recently had a very good value pre-loved section (eg. £35 jumpsuit, half price compared to new). Vintage/ charity shops also good for a rummage. Good luck!

Must be catching, I went swimming today and realised when I got out had not brought a towel 🤦‍♀️ The best alternative available was my spare costume - not recommended!

Fellow tardigrade lovers, if you ever visit Amsterdam, highly recommend the excellent Artis microbiology museum, could have stayed watching the tardigrades down the microscope for hours!

Yep, in UK and would not visit the USA currently. Just flying in seems a risk given air traffic control job cuts/shortages (why on earth would anyone think that's a good place to cut corners?!), that's before you think about arbitrary detention, poor healthcare, lack of gun control etc...

Beautiful pictures! Colour and composition is amazing (Hokusai like but I've no idea if it is Mount Fuji in the background of yours) 🗻 thanks for sharing, J x
