This is our main form of entertainment at the moment: six fox cubs (plus vixen) growing up before our very eyes, just outside our kitchen balcony in central Brighton. Definitely better than television 🧡 #FoxOfTheDay #FoxesOfTheDay #FoxCubsOfTheDay

Greyhound racing to be banned in Wales Labour ministers say the sport - which has one track in Wales - will be banned as soon as possible.

A fantastic day for greyhound welfare. May the rest of the UK follow soon.

You've got to admire how Liz Truss' strategy to stop people from talking about how she crashed the economy has involved purposefully generating an entirely new news cycle about how she crashed the economy

In other news, Nigel Farage didn't bother to turn up to the debate on grooming gangs in the House of Commons just now

Cleopatra lived closer in time to 'yeet' being in the dictionary than to the construction of the Great Pyramid of Giza.

There’s an antiques emporium in Norwich of such unfathomable strangeness every visit produces fresh gasps of bewilderment and terror. Recent finds:

I love this map of places where sycamore gap tree saplings will be planted. They include the Rob Burrow Centre for MND and a plot in memory of a 15 year old girl killed by her ex-boyfriend. They stretch from the Orkneys to Cornwall. By @nationaltrust.bsky.social

I distinctly remember a young couple laughing at me as I pleadingly said, “But Laurie, it’s Sunday!” #GreyhoundsOfBluesky

This may look hand made but it's not. Strong winds during #StormDarragh over Exmoor have created this. Beautiful.
