The anemone in the garden are a wonderful colour now that they are finally blooming.
Unfortunately, some of the dandelions are due to shed their seeds now.
This is Sean Egan. He joined Morrisons at the age of 17.
After 29 years of dedication at supermarket chain, he was dismissed for confronting a shoplifter, which led to a scuffle with thief who spat at him.
A shameful decision by @Morrisons.
He should be thanked, not sacked.

BBC sting catches off-duty police officers in a pub saying hurty words. This is fine.
BBC sting catches ethnic minority solicitors telling asylum seekers to pretend they are gay or DV victims. Entrapment.
@TAP_Portugal I have just spent 2 hours trying to add passport info onto your website. Still can't get through on the phone. You really are the worst airline I've ever had the misfortune to deal with. Rubbish app, rubbish website, rubbish CS.
@tapairisgarbage Just spent the most unhappy two hours of my life trying to put passport details into the website. The most obnoxious, disgustingly bad, feculent website I have ever had the misfortune to try. And I still can't get through on the phone!
Activist: "Your cows are fed soy from cleared rainforests."
Farmer: "My cows eat grass."
Activist: "All cattle eat soy."
Farmer: "Mine don't. They're ruminants. Grass is literally what they're designed to eat."
Activist: "Industrial cattle are fed soy."
Farmer: "I'm not industrial. I'm watching them eat grass right now."
Activist: "But most beef comes from..."
Farmer: "Most beef in Britain comes from grass-fed cattle. We have this thing called rain. Makes grass grow quite well."
Activist: "The statistics say...."
Farmer: "The statistics are global. You're standing in Cumbria."
Activist: "Still, the global supply chain..."
Farmer: "Doesn't include me. My supply chain is: grass to cow to butcher to customer. Four steps. No soy."
Activist: "You're an exception."
Farmer: "I'm the norm here."
This is unfathomable. Read it and weep. It seems it's now acceptable to smash your way into a building, destroy the contents, attack security, and beat a police officer with a sledgehammer with zero consequences. We are in serious trouble in this country.

Oops.
I walked into the kitchen to make a cup of tea this afternoon.
I slipped, and whilst attempting to steady myself, a new batch of Bread Pudding appears to have happened!
