One of my favourite trees - a Scots pine near Arrochar. The picture doesn't do it justice, though. It is truly monumental and shelters many other plants.
Partial picture of an old, huge tree, looking up from the tree trunk to the sky.

Guten Morgen!
Ein Touché-Comic: Bild 1 zeigt zwei Personen im Schnee, im Hintergrund sieht man eine Häuserzeile. Eine Person sagt zur anderen: „Mein Handy! Ich hab mein Handy verloren! Eben hatte ich es noch!“ Auf Bild 2 hat die andere Person ihr Handy in der Hand: „Keine Panik! Sei mal still, ich ruf Dich an!“. Bild 3 zeigt einen großen Schneemann, aus seinem Bauch kommt eine Sprechblase mit Musiknoten. Zwei vorbeigehende Personen sagen: „Vergiss es!“

AHGBI, led by Professor Sarah Wright, opposes the University of Nottingham’s move to suspend—and effectively close—all Modern Languages degrees. SRUK/CERU, led by Dr Carlos Soler Montes, has also raised concerns.

AHGBI urges immediate reconsideration.
