Ah that's a good one. Think you'll enjoy it!

His Dark Materials. I see you started a thread I should have posted there maybe... I will when I catch up!

Coco - 10/10 Brilliant little show. I loved the theme and idea behind it all. The bright colours and effects where used brilliantly to offset the tone just the right amount. Not usually my cup of tea with these disney esque movies but I should have gotten around to watching it far sooner and so should you!

New hope for one of world's most endangered reptiles Baby crocodiles found living in a remote region of Nepal give hope for the future of one of the rarest and strangest reptiles on earth. With its distinctive long thin snout, the gharial is unique but critically endangered, with fewer than a thousand adults remaining in the wild. The discovery of 100 hatchlings is a boost for the potential recovery of the species, according to scientists. The crocodile is clinging to survival in India, Nepal and Bangladesh. Revealing details of the find, researcher Rikki Gumbs of ZSL (Zoological Society of London) said it was amazing to find the baby crocodiles basking on a sandbank in Bardia National Park. "Given the species is limited to around five populations across its entire range, this is such a positive discovery, and a critical step for the long-term recovery of the species in Nepal," he said. "After trekking through the jungle for hours to sit on a ridge and finally catch a glimpse of the hatchlings below us - it was an incredible moment to capture," said Ashish Bashyal, who leads the conservation project in Nepal. "At around 30cm in size, they look exactly like miniature versions of adult gharials - so incredibly cute," he said. 'Extinction risk' to sharks and rays Rare sharks found living off Wales The snail that 'came back from the dead'. The 100 baby crocs, together with three adult females and one adult male, were discovered in June, but details are only now being revealed to aid conservation efforts. The crocodile has not been sighted in the area in 30 years. There is encouraging news in that the hatchlings have recently been spotted again after the monsoon rain. "They've made it through the first big hurdle," Rikki Gumbs told BBC News. "Especially with the threats that are impacting the species, it's very important that these hatchlings can make it to adulthood." Once present across much of the Indian subcontinent, the gharial (Gavialis gangeticus) is virtually extinct across much of its former range, with fewer than 100 adult crocodiles remaining in Nepal and several fragmented populations in India. Only one other breeding population is known in Nepal, at Chitwan National Park. The crocodile poses little danger to humans. Hunting and egg collection are now prohibited, but severe pressures remain, including loss of habitat due to the construction of dams, as well as pollution, fishing, agriculture and predation from another species of crocodile found in Nepal. Adult gharials are large, with males reaching over 5 metres in length and 250kg in weight. Males develop a lump on the end of their snouts, known as a gharas, which gives the species its name. The gharial is ranked at number 17 on ZSL's EDGE (Evolutionary Distinct and Globally Endangered) of Existence programme Reptiles list. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-50464471

Again, not profit.

People still don't understand the total revolution that has happened in this country since the 1980s, community means absolutely nothing to anyone anymore. When Thatcher said there is 'so such thing as society' she was wrong, but now she would be right. They have achieved their aim.

Tell you what, seeing some of that Laura Kuenssberg's tweets are sickening. And people say the BBC is impartial...

You spelt massive cock wrong.

True mate, i just don't know how she could resist those shades and his killer charm.
