The perils of a shared garden - someone has picked my new mini daffodils in the rockery I am making before I have really enjoyed them. and let their dog, or cat, squash others - or jumped on them themselves.

And the puppy they bought at Christmas has taken to decorating the lawn in front of someone else's front door each morning - while attached to its lead.

And a whale is washed up in Kent.

Don't I sound jaundiced?
