Mum horrified after finding ‘disturbing' hidden messages on daughter's dress
Mum Savannah has posted on TikTok how she discovered inappropriate comments with sexual innuendo in small print written on a dress which she had bought for her young daughter A mum has told how she was shocked to find her child's dress decorated with bunnies and jelly beans also had messages with sexual innuendo. Savannah posted on TikTok about her worrying discovery and has warned other parents to take care with her video now having received more than 23 million views. She shows the dress in the clip which looks perfectly innocent with the pink top showing three bunnies and then a white dress with more drawings but also some messages in very small print. And the mum said how she wondered what the messages where one day and that was when she made the shocking discovery. 'One day, when she was napping, I figured I'd take a peek and see what they actually said,' she told in the video. And then she continued, saying that one of the short comments read: 'Want to have an Easter egg hunt under the covers?' Another with sexually charged language read: 'This coupon entitles you to one free peep show!' And they went on in a similar tone with one stating: 'Let's pretend we're rabbits and do whatever comes naturally,' and another message read: 'My tulips (two lips) want to be on your tulips.' The 'weirdest,' according to Savannah, said: 'You've been the best husband and friend a girl could have ever asked for'. Many agreed that the comments were extremely disturbing. 'WTF,' one of the top responses read, reflecting the general sentiment in more than 20,000 comments. Others asked, 'Where did you get that?' as some described the dress as 'disturbing,' 'nasty,' and 'ew'.' 'The world is so perverted now,' said another. However, a few suggested it could have been simply an innocent mistake. One social media user wrote: 'Aww, maybe it was an accident & they accidentally wrote all that.' The dress was made by a US small business called Lele & Co. In response, the company took down the item and issued a statement on its website. It read: 'I would like to express my deepest apologies for the inappropriate text found on one of the clothing items sold in my store. This particular piece was a resale item from a vendor, and regrettably, I did not catch the offensive wording before it was listed. 'Please rest assured that this does not align with the values I uphold or support. We are in the process of taking any and all necessary legal actions against the vendor. For the record, the item in question has been promptly removed from my website and all social media accounts. All remaining stock was destroyed immediately.'

Tourists 'spot' weird beast in Loch Ness waters
Domino's, which has been diversifying the way it delivers its goods in recent months, including via robot dog and on a pothole proof bike – has now gone one step further, utilising a semi-submersible watercraft. The shark like submarine, which can reach speeds of up to almost 45 miles per hour and jump five metres in height from the water, was able to deliver pizzas to campers on the shores. Designed for stealth and speed, the craft is powered by a 300-horsepower high-performance engine. (Image: Robert Perry/PinPep) While the sighting wasn't of the Loch Ness Monster, those watching from the shore were staggered at the sheer pace of the unidentified object which delivered the pizza brands goods to the pair at a nearby camping spot in Loch Ness, Scotland. Captured on video, this high-speed vessel moves across the open water performing a series of moves that break the surface, before pulling up next to a couple waiting on a dock for a pizza. Izzy Gardener, from Pizza Delivery Innovation at Domino's said: 'We're always looking for new and unexpected ways to deliver to our customers, and this summer we wanted to make a splash with another quirky delivery, "Loch Ness is known for its legends, so it felt like the perfect place to test the waters of a world-first submarine delivery.' This is the latest wacky way in which the brand is trying to push the boundaries when it comes to delivering pizza. The Domi-dog, a robot pooch designed to keep pizza safe this summer from pesky seagulls, was let loose on a south coast beach. Another was the pothole proof delivery bike, complete with onboard oven set to 68C to keep orders warm in transit. Not to mention their other endeavours to break new markets with the creation of a Pepperoni Passion perfume ahead of Valentines Day. And the Easter Release of the limited-edition Garlic & Herb Egg. Izzy Gardener added: 'While we won't be training all drivers to become pilots of this unique mode of transport anytime soon, it shows our ongoing commitment to innovation and how far we'll go to deliver to our customers.'

Rylan Clark calls for more stories about transgender people amid ‘wave of hate'
In an appearance at the Edinburgh TV Festival, Clark, 36, who has presented on This Morning and Big Brother's Bit On The Side, spoke about the adversity LGBT+ people can face, as well as his own experience growing up gay. He said: 'I feel that there is a mass wave of hate just sweeping the community, especially trans people at the moment. 'There's a lot of people that are talking about bathrooms and spaces and things like this and people are just being tarnished with the same brush.' The presenter explained there is a mindset that because one transgender person does something bad 'that means all trans people are awful people'. He said: 'Trans people … they're going through a wave of hate at the minute, and I think there is space to show real stories, real trans people. 'A lot of people out there think trans people are the enemy, f*** me. 'I'd like you to walk a mile in their shoes and see who the real enemy is out there to people, because the stories that I know of friends of mine and people that I've grown up with, transitions are awful, absolutely awful.' Over the Easter period, the Supreme Court declared that the words 'woman' and 'sex' in the Equality Act refer to a biological woman and biological sex. The Equality And Human Rights Commission's interim update on the implications of the judgment said transgender people should not use toilets and other services of the gender they identify as. Trans rights protests took place across the country following the ruling and celebrities showed their support by signing an open letter in solidarity with transgender people. At the end of July, the London Trans Pride saw a record-breaking turnout of about 100,000 people, making it 'the largest Trans Pride event in history', according to organisers. Clark said he does not want or need Pride but added that the annual celebratory event is needed because of the way LGBT+ people are treated. At the Scottish TV event, the BBC Radio 2 presenter spoke to actor Russell Tovey and the two reflected on their respective experiences growing up gay in Essex. Speaking about a nightclub he would go to as a young man, Tovey said: 'It was a really important safe space, which I didn't realise at the time how important that was. 'And now you hear about so many safe spaces disappearing for so many queer people, and the importance of that, of somewhere where you can relax and be amongst the people who understand you. 'The disappearances of those is dangerous.'
