£120,000 has been raised and distributed to victims of the post office scandal.
This is because the schemes do not work and victims still need help.

Incredibly grateful for this beautiful pen and ink from @WigAndPens

A surprise gift from my other half. So used to typing I hope I can still write.

Pumpkins:
Halloween is one night.
If you have to waste a food item (and I strongly suggest you don't), please put it out for one night, then dispose of it.
Please DO NOT put it out for the wildlife.
Once you've handled it, cut it, left it out in the open, unrefrigerated, it will not be hygienic or safe for anyone to eat.
Pumpkins are a low-acid vegetable, so once they are cut and left at room temperature, pathogens will rapidly grow on the flesh.
Our precious wildlife do not have any magical properties that protect them against food poisoning.
Additionally, this time of year there are baby hedgehogs around, born too late to find natural food, desperate to eat anything to stop the pain of starvation.
Pumpkin has a laxative affect so it would be particularly cruel to leave it out for starving wildlife to eat in desperation, causing them to lose precious fluids that may make the difference between life and death.
So no matter what you read elsewhere, please DO NOT put your discarded decoration out for the birds or any other wildlife.
It's waste, fit only for the bin.

🆘Please help get this vital message spread far and wide, to save precious lives and prevent suffering.🚨

Scotland AND Wales have banned snare traps but they still remain LEGAL in England.

RT and LIKE this post if you agree they should be banned across the whole of the UK!

If you need a lift (emotional, not vehicular), #WildGod is an astonishing album. Curiously joyful. Beautiful.

Many folk have understandably left this website recently.

If you think your followers might appreciate science-based tweets about how contact with nature & time spent creatively improve mental health & photos I've created purposefully to alleviate stress then do please RT🌿🪶🐚

Backstage at a concert in 2015 at my children’s school -Trinity in Nottingham. Now plans to drastically cut music and creative arts from this wonderful state school. Protest strike on Wednesday and Thursday this week. Where will the future of music come from?

I know the vile and thick Trott will get in again round here – so depressing. But still going to use my vote. They all count. No change if you don’t vote!

First it was the strange hue of the trees now it’s a real life nightmare.

This is very hard to take, it must be shared because none of us can escape this.
A catastrophe like we’ve never known is unfolding & exploding at an incredible rate. 🧵

Using a pack of dogs to tear a wild animal to pieces for fun? If it was on a council estate, the perpetrators would be locked up, but because the perpetrators are tory donors, and it's an old English tradition, it's fine.
I worry about those who derive pleasure from such pursuits
