Apparently, it's #WorldLionDay! A magnificent lion head carved from mammoth ivory some 40,000 years ago. Although small in size (H. 2.3 cm), it exhibits remarkable detail. Found at the Vogelherd Cave, located in the Swabian Jura region. On display at Landesmuseum Württemberg

A slightly different #MosaicMonday today. I'm sharing a pic from Ma'arat al-Nu'man in Syria. This was rated as the 2nd best mosaic museum in the world (after the Zeugma museum). 5 of the men in this pic put their lives on the line to protect the exhibits during the war. True Syrian heroes!

A moment we still can't quite believe.😳 We were watching two humpback whales behaving a little differently than usual. They were staying close together, surfacing frequently, and taking very short breaths as they moved up and down through the water. Something seemed unusual,

Vote Reform. Or we will house *dangerous migrant centres* in your village. And if you vote Green, it will be even worse for you. It's beyond disturbing. The chill wind of threat, thuggery and menace of a kind never before seen in Britain.

Really sorry to hear of Alex Zanardi's passing. He never got the drive he deserved in F1. His amazing spirit in turning adversity to multiple gold medals in the Paralympics after his horrendous Indycar accident was a lesson to us all. Sleep well Champ. #RIP

I'm not a bird expert. But I think I may have seen a juvenile Golden Eagle flying round Saladin's Castle in Syria. Can anyone confirm or correct please? #eagle #bird

Had a very humbling day today. Visited a mosaic museum in Ma'rat al-Nu'man. The amazing guys from the local archaeology dept risked their lives to protect the mosaics as much as they could during the war, despite barrel bombs from Assad and Russian Airforce bombs. #RealPatriots #Syria #mosaics

To all my friends from Australia and New Zealand. I join you in commemorating ANZAC Day and your brave boys. #ANZACday #ChurchillsShame.

9th anniversary of the Grenfell fire is approaching. 72 people died, thousands more scarred. Main causes remain unaddressed. Lust for higher profits Unaccountable corporate power Performance related executive pay Failure of regulators Indifference of govts to the cry of the people Nothing changed.

leftfootforward.orgSuccessive governments have failed to learn lessons of Grenfell TragedyThe conditions that facilitated the tragedy remain unchecked
