My wife and I built an entire greenhouse from flatpack (her birthday present!).

A perspex 6x4' greenhouse with silver struts on a garden deck in front of the white wall of a house.

Case in point.

A black and white greyhound slumped out of her bed, with her head on the floor. She looks like she's melted in the heat.

Last year in beautiful #CaboVerde #CapeVerde

A view over a beach and seashore with beautiful turquoise water. People are swimming in the sea.

This is where I've been for the last week.

A view out over a bright blue swimming pool, to the sandy beach and darker blue sea behind. The scene is framed by palm trees.

Hot dog, summer in the city.

You but as a cartoon

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy

The Natalie Portman meme.

Him: we should turn the UK off.
Her: and on again, right?
Him: *stares*
Her: and on again, right?

These are Chaz (the long snaky one on the moss poles) and Brie (the one with the bigger leaves). Brie was a rescue plant that J found on the street after someone moved out and left their plants behind.

I don't know if any of you are plant people, but look at our Monstera Thai constellation! Her name is Janet (after The Good Place).

A giant monstera plant. It has variegated leaves in shades of light to dark green with white spots. It's in a massive purple pot on top of a low bookshelf, by a window.

It's so hot the dogs are melting.

This is all I reminder on first glance but I'll go back and look through.

What is not covered by the Code?
Education
3.25 Part 6 of the Act prohibits discrimination, harassment and victimisation in
relation to education provided by specified ‘responsible bodies’ in specified
circumstances. Those bodies include the governing bodies and proprietors of
schools and institutions of further and higher education (section 84 to section
94). Discrimination, harassment and victimisation under Part 6 is not dealt
with in this Code.

What do you mean, I've been here for ages. Snore.

If you see this post your getaway vehicle

A child's toy vehicle chassis with a plastic African penguin toy sort of weirdly on top of it.

Enjoying this one 😁 #IREvSCO

Two blue-footed boobies. They are birds with large grey beaks, white and brown feathers, and bright blue feet. They are walking in sync with one foot raised each and look like they're dancing.

It's a dog's life.

$A black and white greyhound lying in a cushioned brown bed. She has pushed one end of the cushion up to make a pillow and is sleeping comfortably in the sun. The sunlight is refracted through the window and looks like rainbows on her white fur.$
