Please retweet, never sell or give your pets away on pet selling sites or social media. Mark Cuthbert bought over 50 pets online to use as bait for his hunting dogs to rip apart. #Ayr #Scotland He sent his partner to pick the pets up as people are more likely to trust a woman.

Please be mindful that older people with dementia might not mount a high temperature and “typical” symptoms of flu. An abrupt change of personality or behaviour might in fact be heralding a delirium. Be vigilant for this and seek professional help for advise. Thx.

Tried to return a fitted sheet to #Dunelm today as it was smaller than the size of bed it was supposed to fit, but the store manager refused to accept it because it had been opened. How else was I supposed to find out that it was not the size it said on the packet...?
