I saw Sir Patrick Stuart in a Hamlet stage production. His stage presence was extraordinary, and he stole every scene he was in. Afterwards, the other actors fell back, letting him take the limelight. He reacted with gracious humility…. An unforgettable night of theatre.

Last visit to Arundel Castle before it shuts for the winter… Flowers still in bloom!

And, of course, a spooky muffin was snaffled in the process!

On this wet autumnal day, what could be better than a cosy cuppa with a slice of freshly-baked lemon drizzle? 🍋☕️

You know I’m rarely lost for words. But the crass insensitivity of this post from Trump hard on the heels of a young man losing his life to a captive tiger in a UK zoo beggars belief. The boy’s family must be in bits. Outrageous. @BornFreeFDN will issue a short statement soon.
Trump actually posted this AI video of him with a tiger in the middle of the night. This man is demented and mentally unwell.

Después de leer tantos comentarios y DMs, es lamentable ver cuántas personas han vivido situaciones parecidas. Dejo este resumen. Guárdalo y compártelo con tus hijos. La seguridad empieza antes de sentir peligro: — Verifica conductor, vehículo y placas antes de subir. — Comparte siempre tu viaje y ubicación con alguien de confianza. — Activa las funciones de seguridad de Uber: PIN, RideCheck y herramientas de emergencia. — Acuerden en familia una palabra o frase que signifique “algo no está bien”. — Mantén batería suficiente; un power bank puede sacarte de un problema. Si algo cambia durante el viaje, mantén la calma, revisa la ruta y avisa a alguien. Si puedes hacerlo con seguridad, termina el viaje en un lugar público. Ante peligro inmediato, contacta a emergencias. Y algo importante: no existe una reacción perfecta. A veces conviene alertar discretamente; otras, hacer evidente que alguien conoce tu ubicación, ruta y placas. No esperemos a una emergencia para enseñarles estas herramientas. Hagámoslas rutina.
