Good morning & welcome to Whiskers Wednesday
Kindness is free.
Go on and sprinkle that stuff everywhere.
A smile, a gentle word, a tiny moment of patience , it all adds up to something bigger than we realise.

I keep thinking I have photographed the last roses of the season and then I find more. These were in Wisley’s Hilltop Wellbeing garden last Sunday but after this morning’s hard frost I don’t expect to see them again.

Learning new vocabulary should be tax-deductible. You learned 100 new words last year? Here’s a $100 tax credit. You learned 500 new words last year? Here’s a $500 tax credit. And so forth.

Coral reefs protect coasts, nurture biodiversity, and help feed millions.
But they’re vanishing fast.
Every fraction of a degree counts in the fight to #SaveOurOcean.
