Please change this advice, it is not helpful and may lead to a false sense of security and tragic deaths. "Lift up the base .." will do nothing: Hedgehogs don't have the Flight or Fight Reflex that we, and most other mammals have. So when faced with danger or threat they will not run. Their reaction is to stay put, curl into a tight ball, and hope the threat goes away. "..and listen for any noises.." will do nothing: Hedgehogs are prey animals, so are very careful to keep silent when a predator (human) is about. So you won't hear any noises. "..and light from one side only." will do nothing: As the heat increases and smoke begins to fill the hedgehog's lungs, he will be terrified, and will try to evade the danger the only way he knows how - to curl up even tighter. The only way to make a bonfire safe is to build it the same day you light it. If you must build it in advance, then before you start you MUST erect a hedgehog-proof fence to enclose the area.

Overnight closures from 8pm - 6am continue tonight in #Stourport ✅ Bridge & Bridge Street ✅ High Street ⛔ Lion Hill ⛔ York Street ✅ Access to Bridge Street from New Street @worcscc @WyreForestDC @StourportCops

So important to play games with your dogs to keep them stimulated.

@marmite It’s the knobby! And 💕💕💕

1. What do you call the end of a loaf? 2. Do you #LoveitOrHateit? #Marmite

It is possible for all these to be true: 1. To be tired of lockdown, but know it's the right thing to do 2. To be busy, & yet a little bored 3. To be grateful for so much, but crave the little things 4. To be longing for hugs, but know when they come they'll be sweeter than ever

To the nurses and doctors and key workers. Thank you.. ⁦@NHSEngland⁩ ❤️

When you are on national TV, or radio, it is a great skill to find the right words, at the right time, without grandstanding, making it about you or looking or sounding like you are preaching. @gregjames is a master of his art @BBCR1

It helps me to remember

TONIGHT'S UK PASS TIMES #Starlink 6 ~21:01 - ~21:09 Very low in south western sky. Only visible to observers in the South East. #Starlink 5 21:48 rising up near Venus in the west and passing overhead near the Plough for 20 mins. Follow @VirtualAstro for alerts. (Please RT)

Clinical staff within the NHS are rightly being praised. But please also spare a RT for the cleaners and many other support staff who are every bit as brave and essential right now (and always).

Sure, The Exorcism is scary but did you ever have a 1980s Uncle who frequently 'took your nose off' then showed you his own thumb and you'd have to slowly go to touch, what you were sure was a big hole in your face but then he'd magically put it back and give you 50p?

@WendyWhirled She’s beautiful ! 💕

I’ll just leave this here ❤️

I sincerely hope the country appreciates that the ‘finest doctors’ are spread throughout the UK. It isn’t just a London thing. Because this isn’t 1903 🙄 #OneNHS
