I work for a retailer that sells clothes. It's where a supermarket used to be. A man came in today and asked where the Ginger Nut biscuits are. I explained we don't sell food but we do sell clothes, he was not impressed, he then went on to ask me if we had HobNobs.... 🙄

Out like a light

Boris Johnson has a helluva lot to answer for. He made politics light entertainment and spawned Beth Rigby, Chris Mason, Peston, Sam Coates and others. They all see their role as adding to the drama not providing information for their viewers. Who's in. Who's out. It's friggin' tedious.

When did a 'walk in the woods' (which we love to do) become 'forest bathing'* ....? * what a load of pretentious shite.

Voters say Labour failing on housing as a third struggle to pay rent, mortgage. It's neoliberalism. Low wages make buying home difficult. Lack of social housing - Tories sold it. UK not self-sufficient in building materials. Unchecked profiteering. Must jettison neoliberalism. archive.ph/3oht4

Surge in data centres to push water bills even higher. A large data centre needs 5m gallons a day. Prospect - dryer rivers, deeper droughts, water shortages. More carbon emissions, higher electricity consumption, power blackouts as data centres get priority. archive.ph/67qAE

Keir Starmer has brutally and psychopathically pursued vulnerable and disabled people through welfare cuts and constant hateful rhetoric. It would be fair if these Labour MPs are never elected again. That’s what would be fair. Because they’ve all let down the most vulnerable in our country.

Keir Starmer's defining policy is still "not my shift mate"

One of the delights at this time of the year - sitting with my camera amid a carpet of wild garlic on Wenlock Edge, with just the squirrels and birds for company! #Shropshire

This Question Time audience member called out ‘grifters like you and your colleagues’ right to Robert Jenrick’s face, and the internet joined the applause flip.it/eXk7uy "Grifters like you"..... brilliant!! 😂

What's your favourite? Mine are the coffee cream and the chocolate almond - mind you, tbh, apart from the strawberry cream I'd eat them all 😋

1 of 2 : My sister is losing her sight, it was recommended she has Meta glasses to aid her. I've been with her today to help set them up and for her to get used to wearing them. I had reservations but after seeing them my worries have reduced. What is wonderful is the 1st image my sister was

Standing under the bird box I can hear the blue tit chicks chirping inside. We see their parents flying in & out for food for them. It's utterly adorable 🐦🌿🐦🌿❤️🐦❤️🌿🐦🌿🐦

My friend and I are messaging about his partner who is a consultant in a busy hospital. I can honestly say, that before I knew my friend, I had absolutely no idea of the long hours and strange on call shift patterns. For all our awareness of the problems faced by our NHS we must be thankful & proud.

Heading back from my morning walk, stopped to take a pic of this glorious sight - a whole area covered with dandelions & forget-me-knots. As I was taking the 📷 a man stopped and asked if I was complaing to the council - I said no I'm just admiring the sight and taking a 📷. He said he'd complained 🙄

Being serenaded by this beauty.... 🎶🐦

Good morning. Another stunning #ShropshireSky to start our day 🌅

Work today.... Would rather stay at home in the garden taking pictures of flowers - but hey ho.... Here's a collage from our garden last year instead. #FlowersOnFriday 🌸

I've learnt a new word today; 'situationship' - had to search what it meant ...... 🤷‍♀️
