At what point do you switch her off? Because that will be down to you, and probably due to the yearly/monthly subscription increases.

I just had this brainworm break into song, so now you must hear it too. Also, I sung it for my husband who was like "what the fuck are you talking about" because he wasn't allowed to watch Sesame Street as a little kid, which seemed insane until I rewatched it and it's totally a drug deal mime. 🤣

So love wobbegongs. Everything is good about the wobbegong. Its name. Its flattened Oscar the Grouch face. Its frondy bits. Its lazy life as a hungry rug. And it’s a shark. Outstanding animal 10/10
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

We asked members of our Nature Table for their wildlife highlight of the year, and Kat Burton sent us this bathing beauty taken with a Lumix G7 mirrorless camera.. A very mellow looking young Common Seal she spotted in November off the undercliff path by Brighton Marina wall.

Before I had anything published, this song was my bio. As I did more and more I kept deleting some of it, and every time it felt bad. I think it’s important to keep these words close to me, no matter what. Here’s a little timeline cleanse, some words of wisdom from Mister Jim Henson 🤍
