It's also: you don't know who is going to become what. A society more confident in itself would believe a little bit more in its ability to make anyone thrive and give back.
My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’
This is so disgusting.

'In the winter garden' - my favourite geometric garden aerial that I've ever done! I don't remember if I shared it here or not yet - it has camellia bushes in the centre and beds of winter heather and hellebore :) the geometric landscapes are always more challenging and I love that! #embroidery

You are ABSOLUTELY NOT going to regret listening to this bird:
A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage.

Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word.

A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).

I have no comment on the cricket other than to say, THIS is what they pushed Jimmy Anderson into retirement for?

For generations, the Trafalgar Square Christmas tree has brought light to the heart of London.

Thank you, Norway, for this gift of friendship since 1947.

Last night’s finished project. Bossman let us know there would be a white elephant Christmas exchange at our work party next week with a $10 cap. Hubby had the lightening bolt idea of a goldfish bowl.

Who wouldn’t want this for their office. No muss, no fuss, & hopefully brings a bit of a smile. 😅

Me, to small boy pissing around on a scooter: "Oh, be careful!"
Mum, who'd had her back turned: "don't you fucking speak to my son like that."

the ECB might be a shower of wankers but at least they're not openly crawling up Trump's arse. "FIFA Peace Prize" indeed.

Starting point with immigrants is to remember that they are fellow human beings. Like you and I.
How would you want to be treated?
⏰ It's time for change on immigration policy - We all agree on that much!

Labour so far have got it all wrong, chasing hostile headlines that will only make our system crueller, society more divided & immigrants easier to exploit.

BUT THERE IS ANOTHER WAY!!
My 9-point plan for a system that works👇

You can thank me for that wicket, England, I went into the sewing room to do something and didn't put the radio on, and suddenly Aggers was yelling from the sitting room. #cricket #TheAshes 🏏

It's always "we're overdiagnosing now" and never "we massively underdiagnosed before", isn't it?
