There are people campaigning to make all abortions illegal here My miscarriage didn’t release. No heartbeat, 4 weeks smaller than it should be. Later found to have an extra half set of chromosomes. I was given drugs to release it. Didn’t work. I needed a D&C. Without an abortion I’d have died.

Mine would be washing machine, oven, dishwasher. Microwave & air fryer can feed them in the meantime. Launderettes are expensive and hard to find

Self care is CPD You’re a better teacher if you rest & recharge 😊

Exactly this. Tiger is going to tiger. If you climb into a tiger’s cage you should expect to be attacked, especially as you’ve entered their territory.

I heard one in the garden today and finally found a pair soaring really high up.

Good morning & welcome to Roast Dinner Day Your thoughts have a powerful influence on the way you see the world. You can think yourself into doubt, worry and unhappiness, or you can choose thoughts that encourage hope, confidence and happiness.

Not every day will be perfect, but a positive mindset can make even the difficult ones a little brighter. Believe in yourself, look for the good and never underestimate the power of a little positivity.

Everyone has a story, and some chapters are harder than others.

You don’t need to fix everything. Sometimes just listening, showing kindness and reminding someone they matter can mean the world.

Be gentle with yourself and others.

Love, George 🐈❤️

Night night sweet dreamies Even I have off-duty days where the tail droops a bit. Staying pawsitive doesn’t mean you’ve got to be happy all the time. Some days are just hard. But deep down, you know brighter ones are coming and they always do.

October leaf palette. If you zoom in to the colours and details it will dial down stress a little and help you recover if there's any angst for you later today (research has shown this)🍁🍂🌾🌿

Leaves from 6 different trees & shrubs collected in October and arranged to create a colour shift echoing a rainbow

That time someone dumped a toy house on the cemetery wall and, when I crouched a bit, some ✨ Hollywood Magic ✨ occurred.

A plastic dolls house sitting on a wall, taken from an angle which makes it look as if it might be one of the houses on the street.

From this week on the foreshore, a greyish marble made of limestone. I’ve found lots of these in my time mudlarking, probably because they were also used as ballast on ships. But this one is different, signs of grinding show it’s been flattened at the base, repurposed as a gaming counter 1/2
