We discovered today that there are fox cubs living in my garden. We see both parents bring food to them. 🥰 Hopefully this is a good omen for the elections tomorrow 🦊

In 2012, a herd of elephants walked for 12 hours to the house of Lawrence Anthony ( the man who had saved them) following his passing, even though no one alerted them to the event They stood around the house in an apparent vigil for two days, in quiet contemplation Exactly a year later, on the anniversary of his passing, the same herd once more made the journey to his house.

So much smearing & belittling of consultants in the press, but this, from today’s @thetimes letters page, could not have put it more beautifully. Pls RT if you agree. #NHS 💙

There is a crime here that goes beyond denunciation. There is a sorrow here that weeping cannot symbolise…. and in the eyes of the hungry there is a growing wrath. In the souls of the people the grapes of wrath are filling and growing heavy... spiegel.de/international/eur…
