I opened a package while walking through the park and signed because I'd accidentally bought a dozen whistles instead of just one. A kid asked why I sighed and I explained. She then asked for the other eleven. I wonder what a five y/o did with eleven really loud whistles.

My pal Paul points out that the penalty shootout earlier between Rochdale and Boreham Wood pitted Oliver Whatmuff against Ted Curd. “It’s as if I’m playing Football Manager on a ZX Spectrum and I’ve renamed the players myself”

You are most welcome. Happy Birthday ❤️

This is pure joy and it happens every single day of the year. Food for 1300 dogs. What i love the most is that the Thai team do it and we share the videos in Thai to millions of people. I'm hopeful that changes hearts and minds at scale!

To bring a smile to your face, here’s an ancient Egyptian dog figurine, a very good boy for some 3,400 years! 🐾🐕❤️ This lovely leaping dog opens and closes its mouth as if barking by using a lever below its chest. The Met 📷 by me #Archaeology

You know how they throw the ball into the crowd after they win a game? That's not allowed in bowling. I know this now.

"A lot of the time, it’s not even grown-ups making up the stories. It’s done by AI. AI is a fancy robot that writes like a college freshman on Adderall who is using filler to hide the fact that he hasn’t done the assigned reading."

I still love the theory a Year 6 child proposed to me that David Attenborough is actually God and he got fed up with people not noticing the amazing things he'd created, so he made documentaries to show off.

Hands up who wants to live in the Britain of David Attenborough, not the Britain of Reform.
