Looking to speak to a cat behaviourist for an article for @TheWildestSite 🐈⬛ Musts: Degree in animal behaviour/equivalent professional qualification, *and* available Monday AM. Preferable: Animal Behaviour and Training Council member. DM me for more info! #journorequest
A quick straw poll. Who remembers the ~ wild ~ popularity of Sailor Jerry UK rum in the mid-2000s and the ensuing rage when they changed the formula? Well I kept a pre-recipe-change bottle. I opened it recently and I have THOUGHTS. Who wants my hot take on this🍹
For @TheWildestSite, I investigated whether my cat is, in fact, ignoring me when I call its name. You'll have to click to find out the answer😼 Thanks to Cats Protection and Wanda McCormick for their insights 🔍 thewildest.co.uk/cat-behaviour/…
The fact I've written about both cats and brunches this week feels very me. Via @TheWildestSite😼thewildest.co.uk/cat-behaviour/… Via Time Out Group 🍽️timeout.com/birmingham/res…
Journalists tell other people's stories for a living and it's rare we get to tell ours, which is why this book from Alex Morrison is such fun. A real nostalgia trip full of familiar names and peak weirdness only found in local journalism. I was momentarily misty-eyed.
Ignore that I look like I'm trying to sell you my debut cook book; enjoy my tale of avoiding ultra-processed foods for BBC Food instead. Was it hard? Was I surprised? No spoilers, I'm here for the clicks👇Tnx to British Dietetic Association & Nichola Ludlam-Raine for input🍴 bbc.co.uk/food/articles/…
