@justin_ng So sad they’ve made Hampton Court Biennial why didn’t they do that with Chelsea instead?

Ok definitely avoid chelsea as it is insanely crowded. Struggling to photograph chelsea in bloom. If you're planning on going to the flower show be prepared to queue and you also might not see anything because of how crowded it is. Id spend the afternoon in your own garden/park

@flaminhaystacks @Tesco Brilliant, everyday is a celebration! 🥳

Got a @Tesco home delivery and the delivery driver was making polite conversation at the door He asked if it was one of our birthdays because he'd noticed a big cake in the order I had to say yes because I was too embarrassed to tell him that we just love the tray bake cake

@autcareandshare I’m glad you can see the funny side of it Adam!

Good morning all, I'm in Ryan's bad books because I burnt the toast, I scraped the burnt off but it didn't pass through quality control unfortunately, he seemed a little happier at a new piece, but he keeps reminding me I burnt it lol, have a great day everyone.

@iamjoshboffin Lots of water!

It’s not even 8am & it’s 20 degrees already. I’ve got a 12 hour shift just about to start. Spending the whole day in all black. I feel sweaty at the thought of it.

@DrSdeG Regardless of the perpetrators circumstances what worries me most is the impact on the victims lives. They were children too.

Teenage boys, whatever their IQ, knew enough to rape girls. They were then told they behaved well when caught, so their low IQ and ADHD meant they didn’t have to be locked up. So when they are older and bigger, they can again be “excused” for being easily influenced? Dear god what are we teaching our kids

@kwoade Is Tink laughing at her in that picture!

Mika loves shit sticks. 💛

@RATW_official I’m sad it’s over. I think it’s one of the only programmes on tv that really gets my emotions invested! Loved it.

What a Race! A huge thank you to this year's teams 🌍🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ Tonight doesn't end there though, stay tuned for The Reunion now on BBC One and iPlayer, and then The Detour on iPlayer and BBC Sounds from 10pm 📺

@StefSpodeUK Bless her. She clearly wanted to live getting herself back home. So sad.

🚨 CAT SHOT WITH .22 RIFLE IN NORTH YORKSHIRE VILLAGE A young cat had to be euthanised after vets discovered she had been shot with what is believed to have been a .22 rifle in a quiet North Yorkshire neighbourhood. The grey-and-white tabby returned home to Whitewall in Norton on 5 May after being missing for around a week, dragging herself on her front legs and unable to use her back end. Her devastated owners initially feared she had been hit by a car. A veterinary examination revealed far more disturbing injuries. According to the RSPCA, the young female cat had suffered a gunshot wound to the abdomen and a shattered femur, with fragments recovered from her body suggesting she had been shot using live ammunition from a .22 rifle. Despite undergoing emergency surgery, the severity of the injuries left vets with no option but to put her to sleep the following day on welfare grounds. The shooting has sparked fresh concern over the scale of weapon attacks on animals across Britain. The RSPCA said it has received nearly 500 reports involving animals targeted with weapons over the past three years, including shootings, catapult attacks and crossbow incidents. Inspectors are now urging residents in the Welham Road and Whitewall Corner Hill areas of Norton to remain vigilant and report suspicious behaviour. The use of firearms against domestic pets remains a serious criminal offence and animal welfare organisations have repeatedly warned that cases involving cats are often difficult to solve because attacks frequently happen at night or in isolated areas without witnesses. Anyone with information about the shooting is being urged to contact the RSPCA quoting incident number 01795343.

@GazWeetman @mostly_grumpy I became a father recently, quite glad my child’s phone fell into the sink or I never would have known.

Well this is surprising on two levels: 1) my mum would usually ask me to sort out her mobile phone. 2) she’s been dead for years

@DrSdeG Love that.

I know I am 50 but I am not ready for “swimsuits with more coverage for comfort” for my holiday. Honestly algorithms🙄 Life is way too short and no one round the pool cares what anyone looks like. And if they judge….so what?

@davidsupercat See what the cream and steroids do for him. My cat gets ulcers on her stomach from time to time. Steroids always clear it up, but she has to have the strong injection that lasts 3 months rather than the lower dose that lasts a week or so. Try not to worry.

Jim, checking on Benji. I think he knows something is up. I will have to admit that I’m really worried about Benji. What with the masses found in his mouth and now his lip, I can’t help thinking that he’s got oral cancer. I hope I’m wrong. He’s only 12. I’m not ready to lose him

@DrSdeG Unless you have plenty of money long term use or maintenance doses just won’t be an option. Perhaps if the tablets are approved things will get better? There’s still so much stigma both in the medical profession and in society too 😞

@DrSdeG I’ve started to realise what a minefield this is. If patients can afford it you can go privately, but I think there are lots of private online pharmacies who don’t offer the support that patients need, just a check in. What’s needed is enough support so patients don’t yo-yo.

Currently doing a trawl of the massive amount of updates in obesity research. The evidence is becoming so compelling that the beneficial effects of GLP-1/GIP and upcoming meds are so profound, on so many body systems, that the 12 yr roll out for the NHS is shortsighted in the extreme.

@SarahjevsEvans No, no, no he’s not ready for the responsibility 😳

I was having a serious conversation with the Vetinary Nurse on the phone this morning. She said "Howard... even though he is young he can still be a Dad". Howard

@kwoade Treasure!

Guess what’s in her mouf

Saw my first fox cub of the season tonight and he or she was a little beauty. About the size of a small cat. I wished I’d had my phone with me! In other fox News I now have nose poke II who comes up the steps to wait for chicken now!

@kwoade You can see them thinking hmm toast!

Lydia still has toast.

@kwoade That’s not a happy face. The indignity for all involved!

Guess who had to be clenched between their owner’s knees whilst yesterdays stuck grass was dragged out of her arsehole, in front of an admiring crowd of horrified onlookers no less 🤎

@kwoade Her little face ❤️
