Good morning & welcome to Whiskers Wednesday

Start your day with hope in your heart & belief in your step
Happiness doesn’t always arrive fully formed, sometimes it begins as a quiet whisper that says, β€œYou can do this.”

You can 🧑

The two Israelis killed today were killed when their bulldozer hit an unexploded bomb, which had been dropped by Israel.

The only side that killed, 44 people today, was Israel.

I remember seeing some of the first kites over from Wales during the re-introduction campaign. This was about 25 years ago, over the ancient woodland on Cheddar Hill in Somerset. Amazing sight!
RSPB says the Uk now has about 17% of the world's population of red kites.

I've read that the kites are spreading along the motorways and main roads, as they are scavengers rather than predators and are feeding on roadkill. Is this correct?

Good morning welcome to Tippetty tap tap Thursday

Kindness and politeness aren’t overrated, they’re simply not used enough.

A little kindness each day can create a ripple effect, brightening lives in ways we may never fully see.

When I moved to Spain 20 years ago, where I live on the Valencian coast was considered the most northern reach of the hoopoe. How things have changed....

Trump hates to be the object of humor. He understands that humor can be a more powerful antidote to tyranny than any other form of criticism.

I'm sure he'd hate it if you shared this cartoon. [Cartoon by Jon Adams/The New Yorker]

Today here in Spain I was sitting in a square & a brown / white pigeon walked past. It then walked to the edge of the pavement, checked to see if any cars were coming and walked across the road to join some others. Do you think it had forgotten it could just fly over? 😁

This is the judgment on the PPE/Medpro claim.

A cracking Β£122m win for the Government Legal Service

And is wonderful to see the government bringing a claim in contract against a shoddy supplier.

This does not happen often, and it should happen far more.
