1. Please allow my indulgence. Happy 18th wedding anniversary to my gorgeous wife Heidi❤️
Had a road trip to #skegvegas yesterday with the kids which was pretty poignant because a few weeks before we got married, the stress of planning it, affording it, etc, etc got a bit much.
2. So in 2004 we went to Skegness for the day to get away from it all & got absolutely hammered {hey, we were young} and ended up finding a B&B to crash in. I think we were in bed, zonked from 9pm.
Here's some pictures past & present.
3. Been together 26 years, married 18 years, been Mum & Dad for nearly 15 years. We've laughed & cried together, fell out with each other, loved together, had good & bad times, sad & happy times but if your love & connection is strong with someone love can & does conquer all.
<1> PARLIAMENT, POLITICS, PARANORMAL & PALMISTRY. There have been several acts & bills over the years to try to in some way to combat / target / repel Witchcraft, Fortune Telling, Mediums etc, etc. I was curious to find out what they were and find out more about them.
<2> Witchcraft, a perceived facility to summon evil spirits & demons to do harm. The medieval Church had powers to punish those who dabbled in magic & sorcery & priests were able to exorcise those who had become possessed by malign spirits parliament.uk/about/living-h…
<3> During the 16th C, many people believed that witchcraft, rather God's will, offered a more convincing explanation of sudden & unexpected ill-fortune, i.e. sudden death, bad harvests etc. Witch-hunting became an obsession in some parts of the country. parliament.uk/about/living-h…
1. A study of 2,000 adults found 37% reckon they’ve witnessed something out of the ordinary although 35% put it down to an optical illusion. While 45% have thought UFOs & aliens exist for as long as they can remember, 23% say they are true believers of extra-terrestrial life.
2. A third admit they want to believe that there are alien beings out there – despite not always being fully confident in the myth or theory. The research was commissioned by @BeavertownBeer to celebrate #WorldUFODay on Saturday July 2nd.
3. “You often hear stories out there that people have spotted sightings of aliens/UFOs & we've always wondered just how many Brits believe in aliens so it’s been really interesting to look at the research this World UFO Day & find out how people feel about extra-terrestrial life"
1. Gareth Southgate has been immortalised in ice cream after being named the ‘Coolest Brit’
The @EnglandFootball manager, who led the team to their first major final since 1966, topped the list with nearly a third of the vote.
2. He took first place, ahead of his squad members @MarcusRashford 18% & @BukayoSaka87 13%.
Radio & TV presenter @MayaJama also made the cut while pop singer @DUALIPA, The Queen & @HKane featured in the top 10 list.
3. @NathanWyburnArt created a portrait out of ice cream including cones, sauces, 100s & 1000s, wafers & chocolate flakes. Using 100 cones, 50 scoops of ice-cream, 3kg of raspberry, chocolate & caramel sauce, 1kg of 100s & 1000s, 75 chocolate flakes & 250 wafers.
Pet owners have revealed the weirdest things their furry pets have done, including sitting in the toilet bowl, trying to eat candles & walking backwards. The study of 2,000 cat & dog owners found our 4-legged friends have barked at nothing, ate mud & even tried to ‘dance’.
Acting like a human, trying to do a forward roll, sleeping in an empty bathtub and even sucking on a baby’s dummy were also among some of the unusual behaviours cited by the respondents polled by pet wellbeing specialist, ITCHpet.com.
But psychic astrologer @jessicacadams believes their behaviour could be down to a timely astrological phenomenon known as #MercuryRetrograde
"Pets can do unusual things and a lot of the time we as humans, can find it thoroughly entertaining. It’s what makes our pets so loveable"
