Henry, a cat brought in a rabbit for Leo, a dog. After persuading him to let go, it emerged that rabbit was alive and perfectly healthy, so I went out in the pissing rain to put it back where it came from. Oh how we laughed*.

The conspiracy theory that I believe in the most is that supermarkets display less loose produce nowadays so that they can put at least one piece of damaged/dated fruit or veg in each pre-packed package and pass the wastage on to the customer.
#FoodWaste - it is what the supermarket model is built on: full shelves, all of the time with every product, can only create waste.

I hate the way we still stigmatise mental health. Youngest had a bad brain day yesterday and doesn't quite feel up to going in to college today.
Everyone knows it can happen, we had a whole meeting over it. We're all on the same page.
"I'll just put down that he's feeling a bit poorly, shall I?"

Starmer’s allies launch ‘Stop Andy Burnham’ campaign to block parliamentary return
Speculation has spread over whether Burnham will attempt to return to pursue a Labour leadership bid
Keir Starmer’s allies have launched a “Stop Andy Burnham” campaign to prevent the Labour mayor from returning to parliament after the resignation of a Manchester MP triggered a byelection.
Multiple members of the party’s ruling national executive committee (NEC) predicted it would be impossible for Burnham to make it through the selection process given the number of Starmer loyalists on the body desperate to avoid a leadership challenge. Continue reading...

So, 3 broad possibilities here:

2) Rutte agreed to something of substance *not* pre-cleared with Copenhagen & Nuuk
