ADORABLE images show the moment a shattered seal was found waddling along a country path in a bid to escape sea storms.

Increasing numbers of people are packing in their 9 to 5 jobs and choosing a life on the road – in a Ford Transit van.

To some, this might seem a bit odd. What’s wrong with, you know, living in a house? Enjoying ordinary living conditions? Having access to a bath, stable electricity and heating?

It’s not technically Christmas until someone (most likely you) has an absolute meltdown over the decoration process.

You spend weeks looking on Pinterest and in the shops for your perfect Christmas display.

Here are the main red flags employers look out for when hiring new people

The journey isn’t easy and the elimination process is hard, but once you decide upon your ideal decorating scheme you’re intent on recreating it in your own home.

However…it doesn’t always work out that way. Instead all your festive hopes and dreams end in tears and broken fairy lights.

Ah, Christmas.

1. The tree dilemma 

Should you treat yourself and take the plunge with a real one, even though they’re pretty expensive?

Or do you play it safe and invest in an artificial one? Traditional green or white?

You’re so conflicted that you consider getting five different trees to fulfill all your desires.

2. The colour scheme

For most of us, December means selecting and decorating your Christmas tree.

This project brilliantly points out why Instagram's anti-nipple policy doesn't make sense

For others, it means getting inventive and creating unique trees out of non-tree-like objects. Such as books.

That’s right, book-lovers are stacking their favourite tales in the shape of Christmas trees – saving them cash and the need to hoover up stray pine needles.

Sure, it’s probably going to hurt a lot more than a tree if it falls on you – but at least you don’t have to take up extra space storing the books… Read the full story

Cats are the most superior animal species – everyone knows that. As such, they have complete dominance over their humans.

If cat is hungry, cat will let you know by meowing. If cat is feeling playful, cat will most definitely let you know by prodding, clawing or biting. If cat needs to go for a pee outside, cat will scratch at door.

It’s something that so many of us feel (pepperoni) passionately about.

So much so that it’s broken up relationships, inspired some seriously disgusting revenge and caused one man to chase it around the world.

Dairy-avoiding vegans even clamber over each other to get a slice of the (cheese alternative) action.

Which is why this latest pizza-shaming research has floored us a bit.

He loves trains (and memorises every train station he passes), Peter Pan, Peppa Pig, and Mr Tumble. He’s chatty, sociable, and his favourite things to do include waking up early, going to nursery, swimming and seeing his friends.

Stanley also has cerebral palsy.

‘Stanley has challenges every day,’ Stanley’s mum, Eve, told metro.co.uk.

We’ve all been to job interviews which we thought went well but didn’t come to anything. How? Your CV was mistake-free. Your outfit was clean and ironed. Your banter was on top form.

How could they leave you on the employment scrap heap when you were so obviously the best person for the job?

Hey, women, in case you haven’t heard, your nipples are wildly inappropriate and a threat to society at large.

Men, you’re fine. Keep doing what you’re doing.

That’s the message sent by Instagram, anyway, who will take down photos or ban accounts entirely if they dare to show a naked female nipple without the context of breastfeeding, while leaving photos of male nipples untouched.
