Mental Health awareness should be every day so I’m reposting this from World Health Day.

My weekly outing with Mrs H last week was to Wimborne. We had a lovely time looking in the shops and admiring the Minister, we stopped for a Coffee and a Cherry Lemonade too. It was very nice. Being in the shops helped us dodge the rain too. Mrs H is a joy to be with and she always greets me with a hug and a smile. Farewells are the same. Here are a few photos…

It’s so important to support people with hidden disabilities and it be so easy to do so too. Ferndown Library now stock books for Dyslexic people. This is such a good thing. Doesn’t inconvenience them but will make a huge difference to Dyslexic people.

💙 World Mental Health Day – 10 October 💙

Today is World Mental Health Day — a day to remind ourselves that mental health is just as important as physical health.

World Mental Health Day has been observed internationally on 10 October since 1992, helping to raise awareness, challenge stigma and encourage people to talk more openly about mental health.

Mental health isn’t just something we should think about when someone is obviously struggling.

Sometimes it’s the older person who lives alone, the neighbour who hasn’t been out much lately, or the person who always says they’re “fine”.

💙 So why not check in?

A phone call, a cup of tea, a little company or simply asking “How are you really doing?” can make a bigger difference than we realise.

If you or someone you know needs someone to talk to, help is available:

📞 Samaritans – 116 123
Free, confidential support, 24 hours a day.

📱 Shout – text SHOUT to 85258
Free crisis text support.

📞 NHS 111
For urgent mental health support, select the mental health option.

🚨 999 / A&E
For an immediate emergency or if someone cannot keep themselves or someone else safe.

💙 Good Life Sorted provides practical home help, companionship, shopping, trips out and support to help people remain independent at home.

Sometimes looking after someone’s mental wellbeing isn’t about finding the perfect words.

Sometimes it’s simply showing up, listening and making sure someone doesn’t feel quite so alone. 💙

🐙💜 Happy World Octopus Day! 🐙💜

I absolutely LOVE octopuses! They are such incredible and fascinating creatures. 🌊🐙

Did you know they have three hearts, blue blood and eight arms? And here’s an amazing fact — around two-thirds of their neurons are actually in their arms, so their arms can process information and act surprisingly independently! 🤯🐙

Have you watched My Octopus Teacher on Netflix? If you haven’t, I highly recommend it — it’s absolutely wonderful! 🥰💜

Happy World Octopus Day! 🐙🌊💜

Have you seen much wildlife lately? Have you visited a National Trust property?

Who else loves Pizza? A friend and I went to Pi Pizza in Poole Quay. It was delicious. I built my own with clams, truffle oil and vegan cheese. It was sooo good. The Mocktails were good too. I had a virgin Piña Colada. I would definitely recommend it.

What’s your go to Pizza or one you’ve built yourself which was good?

This weeks visit to the cinema with Mr B was to see Avengers Endgame Encore. Apparently there were additional seconds added to the film. I could not tell the difference to be honest but it’s been awhile since I saw the original. Ironman still brought a tear to my eye though. great film.

What’s your favourite Marvel Character? And film?
