On this #420day, we celebrate the 52nd anniversary of performers “Gail & Dale” singing the hit, “One Toke Over the Line,” on Lawrence Welk.

Neither had an idea the song was about pot, and Welk thought the song was a “modern spiritual.”

A few weeks ago he was living rough on the streets of Thailand.

Today Shaggy saw himself in the mirror for the first time 🥰🥰🥰

One of Ireland's less flamboyant native trees going about it's business on the edge of woodlands, in meadows &, obviously, by our rivers☁️

Last week, I wrote about about how domestic abuse victims on both sides of the border were more at risk since Brexit. Less than a week later, an 8 year-old child died protecting her mother from a man attacking her. We need both governments on this island to come together and act.
