Last visit to Arundel Castle before it shuts for the winter… Flowers still in bloom!

And, of course, a spooky muffin was snaffled in the process!

On this wet autumnal day, what could be better than a cosy cuppa with a slice of freshly-baked lemon drizzle? 🍋☕️

You know I’m rarely lost for words. But the crass insensitivity of this post from Trump hard on the heels of a young man losing his life to a captive tiger in a UK zoo beggars belief. The boy’s family must be in bits. Outrageous. @BornFreeFDN will issue a short statement soon.
Trump actually posted this AI video of him with a tiger in the middle of the night. This man is demented and mentally unwell.

Después de leer tantos comentarios y DMs, es lamentable ver cuántas personas han vivido situaciones parecidas. Dejo este resumen. Guárdalo y compártelo con tus hijos. La seguridad empieza antes de sentir peligro: — Verifica conductor, vehículo y placas antes de subir. — Comparte siempre tu viaje y ubicación con alguien de confianza. — Activa las funciones de seguridad de Uber: PIN, RideCheck y herramientas de emergencia. — Acuerden en familia una palabra o frase que signifique “algo no está bien”. — Mantén batería suficiente; un power bank puede sacarte de un problema. Si algo cambia durante el viaje, mantén la calma, revisa la ruta y avisa a alguien. Si puedes hacerlo con seguridad, termina el viaje en un lugar público. Ante peligro inmediato, contacta a emergencias. Y algo importante: no existe una reacción perfecta. A veces conviene alertar discretamente; otras, hacer evidente que alguien conoce tu ubicación, ruta y placas. No esperemos a una emergencia para enseñarles estas herramientas. Hagámoslas rutina.

What a moving place Twitter is today with harrowing 9/11 stories dominating my timeline. It’s a poignant reminder that life can be so short. It’s up to us to make the most of it, be kind and inclusive, and never allow brutality to steal our humanity. 🙏
