#DailyPictureTheme ”Bewitched” - the Shrew Ash which once stood in Richmond Park was visited by local women as late as the 19th century for magical rites- the original was lost in a storm. This Ash now stands as a bewitching reminder between Sheen and Roehampton gates…

A fabulous end to the day here at a Twickenham with the sun doing its magic to the trees as well as incredible deep red clouds reflecting in the Thames.

Clear labelling matters, but so do genuinely plastic-free alternatives. Water firms must also boost their investment in better sewage infrastructure and consumers must dispose of them responsibly. ⬇️
