Spotted this tree at Barnsdale garden. No idea of the species. Loved the colours and pattern of the bark. #trees

Lovely day visiting Moseley Old Hall near #Wolverhampton Plus got to try the legendary #NationalTrust curried cauliflower pasty. Popped into #Lichfield garden centre on the way back. Didn't buy any plants for a change.

#Fashion is so ageist. When teenage girls walk around with their knees poking out of their jeans they are trendy. When I do it I look like a tramp. Maybe it's time to relegate another pair of trousers to my #allotment chic collection.

This door puzzled us for a while. How does it open? Hinges both sides! Spotted at.the walled garden at Derby Hydrangea in Darley Park. Eventually spotted another one that was open. Can you figure out how it works? #Mystery #Derby

Dark wooden single door in a brick wall with hinges on both sides and white handles on both sides.

Favourite plant at the moment. Tithonia is also a hit with the bees. #gardening

Dr Seuss 1941

Cartoon by Dr Seuss from 1941. On a small stage two pleased looking men facing each other with long beards that are joined together.
One has America First on his jacket and the other has a swastika on his waistcoat.
A presenter is pointing to them with the caption...

"And on this platform, folks, those most perplexing people... the Lads with the Siamese Beard! Unrelated by blood, they are joined in a manner that mystifies the mightiest minds in the land!"

I have just donated to help #Ukraine Strong words and outrage about Trump are all very well, but they aren't as effective as the support that cash can buy. Will you donate? u24.gov.ua Please boost.
