I have just read a piece in the paper  which I could hardly believe.
See what you think:


"A Snail race has been cancelled by a Council after animal rights activists complained it could cause injury to the creatures.
The race was part of Nottingham's Great Big Green Week at the city's Central Library, and was billed as an 'electronic  snail racing demo'  that was 'light-hearted'  and 'educational.'

People were encouraged to bring in snails from their gardens for the event, which was due to take place on Wednesday,  but an animal coalition group said it was 'unnecessary'  and called for it event to be cancelled.
The group said on social media that they were 'absolutely shocked'  and said it was a 'desperate attempt to engage children.'

The event was cancelled.

Could have sworn I commented on this thread this morning  :hmm:
Anyway it's been a lovely day here, no rain and I've been on my weekly trip to Mc Donalds, then to the park so feeling a bit cream crackered.

I have a copy too. 'Go placidly amidst the noise and haste'.  Very apt for today's world.

I think it would be a perfect reading.  'I want no rites in a gloom filled room'. I've sent it to my daughter, just in case 😉
