coming to theatres at some point I'm sure

Ooh, new Seiko 5s

40mm case, no bezel

https://wornandwound.com/new-watches-in-the-seiko-5-sports-collection-lose-the-dive-bezel-with-their-latest-update

Not 100% sure on them, they feel like they should be field watches but still have the very dive watch styled indices. Bit like the BB41 in that respect but I suspect they'll grow on me

up tesco all the checkouts are surrounded by plexiglass so it looks like they're all in fish cages

on the plexi is a sign saying "please do not touch the glass"

I was so tempted to add "it startles the staff"in sharpie or something

put a gonk on it

has anyone ever used the phrase "you're playing with fire" and not been immediately mocked for it?

Got to admit all these pride flags are getting a bit confusing to keep track of

I mean, what on earth is this one? 🇧🇪

further correction: turns out there was another one hidden out there at the time that we caught on the IR camera from a different angle

SIX HEDGEHOGS! WE HAVE NO LESS THAN SIX HEDGEHOGS! 🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔

correction: 2 on one side, 3 on the other!

FIVE HEDGEHOGS! 🦔 🦔 🦔 🦔 🦔

running from one side of the house to the other because we've got two hedgehogs having a munch on both sides!

FOUR HEDGIES! 🦔 🦔 🦔 🦔

hedgehog!

my european, mayonnaise-coloured ass doesn't really have anything of value to add to the discussion, but I hope all the people out there can stay as safe as possible under the circumstances

also, the only blue life that matters is cookie monster

the collective noun for a group of hedgehogs is a "prickle"

a prickle of hedgehogs!

for quite a while I assumed that "instagram" was an app that ordered you cocaine for delivery

"Dominic Cummings cutout appears at rugby league match in Australia"

hey, on the bright side that explosion looked big enough that some of the parts might have made it to space

if you'd like to go all extra credit then maybe make little holes in the bottom of any fencing so they can get through and explore other gardens

https://www.hedgehogstreet.org/help-hedgehogs/link-your-garden/

maybe put out some food for them, they mostly enjoy meat-flavoured cat food (both wet food and biscuits)

https://www.hedgehogstreet.org/help-hedgehogs/feed-hedgehogs/

maybe even build a hedgehog house and give them a place to stay! (also building one will keep any kids you have busy for a couple hours)

if you're in the UK or some other place with hedgehogs please remember to put some water out for our spiny friends, it's rather warm and dry at the moment

just a dish of water will be a massive help to them

the chicken thief was back!

adorable little hedgehog came by again and ate some chicken that we had out for the cats

looks like they might be living next door, they went through the gate into next door's garden to leave
