Longshot but my husband lost this ring which was on a chain (both titanium) when we were on holiday in July. Center parcs Sherwood haven't got it. He also went to Trent Bridge, Sherwood Pines and Ruffford Abbey #nottinghamshire Just in case anyone sees this and has seen it!

I live in Republic of Ireland but can still vote in UK general elections. My postal vote paperwork arrived today. No chance of arriving back in time unless I paid €14 for express post. Worth every cent if it means the Tory’s lose #ukgeneralelection2024 #postalvote #LabourParty

Just observed blue tits pulling off petals from peach tree blossom. Are they eating something sweet on flowers? Think the petals are edible or looking for insects? 🍑 🐦
