Autumn leaves

Posted on October 12, 2015 by Gary

The season has definitely changed. It was very cold this morning, walking Mirinda to the station. Not that I’ve stopped wearing shorts, though if what I heard this morning is true, I won’t be for long. Apparently, one of the … Continue reading →

Mophead massacre

Posted on August 20, 2015 by Gary

It should take me around 20 minutes to walk from home to Kate’s place. Kate is the puppies’ hairdresser and she lives on the other side of the park…more or less. While Kate usually picks the girls up and drops … Continue reading →

Definitely not orange

Posted on August 17, 2015 by Gary

Having spent a day with the new puppy, I’ve decided I don’t like calling her Fanta. It’s a harsh word and doesn’t shorten very well. I’ve started calling her Fizz instead. It’s still short for Fizzy-pop Fanta. Actually, when I … Continue reading →
