Trump hasn’t been seen in public since 27th May.
That was at a White House meeting following his 3rd “annual” check up.
Hmm… 🤔

Why are British people saying "hate on" rather than hating? Too many US TV programmes?
I find it irrationally irritating.

[Keren Bobker @FinancialUAE]

@Ambarseriya They hate everyone, especially if happy.
The Mail is a scourge on humanity

@AlsieLC @ihab This is why people need to look at a maps and work out where they are going, not just rely on tech.
There was a time here when that was the only way. We managed.

Walk your lawn before you mow it. Especially in spring and summer, especially after rain.

Lawn mowers kill toads, fledgling birds, snakes, baby rabbits, and box turtles by the millions every summer. None of them get out of the way fast enough. Most of them are exactly the species your yard most benefits from having around.

Two minutes of walking before you start the mower saves all of this. Look for matted patches of dead-looking grass (rabbit nests), small ground depressions, sleeping toads in the morning dew, fledgling birds hidden in long grass, and any small turtle you weren't expecting.

If you find a rabbit nest, flag the corners with garden stakes and mow around it for the next 2 to 3 weeks. The babies leave the nest on their own.

Two minutes of looking is the difference between a perfect lawn and a perfect lawn that didn't kill anything.

Abu Dhabi has imposed a rent freeze across the residential, commercial and industrial sectors.

'Your rent stays the same. A temporary measure is in effect across Abu Dhabi,' the Abu Dhabi Real Estate Centre said on social media.

'All residential, commercial, and industrial tenancy contract renewals will be processed at a 0% increase for the duration of the measure.

'Any new tenancy contract on a previously rented unit will be offered at the same rental value as the preceding contract.'

@permexpat I am of the firm belief that no one should be allowed to buy/drive any vehicle until they demontrate that they can park it properly.
Plus we all know *that* type who thinks they are more important than anyone else. #expattwats
