@csubbe If you have recently traveled with Deutsche Bahn, you are already aware of the coming end of the world 😱

@the_lazy_ferret Good to see ferrets getting out 😻

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

@Berricherry Depending on the degree, scoliosis can be surprisingly difficult to diagnose (says the person who cheats by using X-rays)

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

@DrLindaDykes @leighbooker Yes! 🙂

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

@DrLindaDykes @leighbooker And got ‘siege engine elbow’ to prove it 😉

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

@DrLindaDykes @Aidan_Baron Yes, and that was a normal sized ferret (I still have the envelope on the pin board in my office because I thought it was quite cool)

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

@DrLindaDykes @Aidan_Baron I would say probably yes (going by the times I’ve been told “oh, so you’re the one with the tiny ferret”)

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

@Berricherry A bit late, but:

@owlladycal @the_lazy_ferret Oh, just realised you might have misunderstood 30DaysWild. It’s something the UK Wildlife Trusts do, to encourage people to experience nature for 30 days in June. I’m absolutely not putting my ferret into any situation that could really be described as wild. Just gently outdoors

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

Gwenda the #Ferret 's #30DaysWild - Day 26: it has been raining all day, so it’s better to hide under some leaves

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

@owlladycal @the_lazy_ferret She is on a lead in my garden. She has a whole room of her own in my house, with tunnels and hammocks and a dig box. I take her out most days, when she had enough she climbs into my jacket & we go home. I just post about it in June 🤷

Gwenda the #Ferret 's #30DaysWild - Day 27: bird watching at #LlynRhosDdu - we saw a heron, some moorhens and some very vocal magpies who clearly had a massive argument

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

Gwenda the #Ferret 's #30DaysWild - Day 25: it’s #NationalPicnicWeek - we’re having a picnic in the forest amongst orchids

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

Gwenda the #Ferret 's #30DaysWild - Day 23: we went for a walk and found a marsh orchid

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

Gwenda the #Ferret 's #30DaysWild - Day 21: watching the sun set on the longest day of the year #solstice

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

Gwenda the #Ferret 's #30DaysWild - Day 20: some yellow rattle has appeared in the meadow, which is good - it is parasitic on grass so we might have more flowers next year

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

Gwenda the #Ferret 's #30DaysWild - Day 15: a wild rose - it just appeared in our hedge. Earlier there were lots of bees around it 🐝

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

Gwenda the #Ferret 's #30DaysWild - Day 14: a sunbath sitting in the ivy. Warm weather after the recent rain makes everything smell very interesting

[Alex Kraus @AlexBoletus]

Gwenda the #Ferret 's #30DaysWild - Day 12: we let things grow on the garden wall, and this plantain is really huge
