Harley could when he was younger, so we had the collar/harness connection then plus like you, the handle. Now he's 9 he's not fussed about escaping.

If we're in a busy area or harley is being a menace, the lead goes on the collar. If not busy, the harness or off lead. People just don't know their dogs or ignore the behaviour, which is not ideal.

Got a £70 per month uplift in pay. Now pay an additional £20 in tax, NI and workplace pension. I make under £19k a year, and will likely never see either pension before I'm 70.
But, how dare we tax rich people, apparently. 🤷‍♀️

"Low-income households will get [free] plug-in solar panels to cut their energy bills, the Government has announced."

This is how you do a just transition.

Voters have just today left to register to vote for the local elections taking place across England on 7 May. Anyone who wants to take part must register before 11.59pm tonight.

Registering takes minutes at gov.uk/register-to-vote. Just need name, address & National Insurance number. Pass it on.

Black Swan on a murky pond surrounded by green foliage.

Walk up to the Friars for the Farmers Market. Not the biggest but they have everything you could want.

Working class people defending billionaires is peak stupid. The rich do NOT pay more in taxes compared to their income/investments/wherever they get their ££ from than you.

Not happy that my tax payers pounds are going to AI companies. Especially ones that steal copywritten material to make slop. Might have to write my MP, again.

Medieval bridge on the Medway. Green grass and Oast Houses behind. Under partly cloudy sky.

River medway at Aylesford.

Signpost at Leas Cliff Park Folkestone. Blue water merging with blue sky behind.

10 mile run (with some walking thanks to my knee) and then a 5 mile trek from sandgate to Folkestone Harbour and back with the furry demon.

Need to get my sewing machine set up in preparation for tomorrow. Also need to iron the fabric. Will begin the cutting and sewing of a dress tomorrow.

What's your favourite Bible verse
(Wrong answers only)

"He who smelt it, dealt it."

Cloudy day at the Margate Harbour. Sky blends with sea.

Peter's fish factory open on the cobbled street.

Took the motorbike down to Margate for Fish and Chips. Place we were going to go to supposedly opened at 11, but at 1150 still weren't open so went to Peter's, which is always good.

Also, I'm astounded by how much groceries are. Two years ago I could buy 1 week of groceries: dinner for 3, breakfast/lunch for 2 for £50 snacks etc. Now just two of us, no snacks is £65, at the awful place starting with T. May be time for Aldi again as its getting crazy expensive just for basics.

Loving this spat between an 🍊 💩 and the Pope. Never thought I, as an atheist, would side with the Pope. But here we are.

The Tories really ought to shut the hell up. Them complaining about the problems they created is a masterclass in lack of self awareness. Just fuck off and take Dumbform with you.

C'mon Starmer, do England next. He won't though.

I can now visit Budapest again! Went in 2010 just before the dictator and refused to go back until he was gone. Ditto for the USA.

Is it such a bad thing to just be nice to people? So many would be willing to hurt themselves just to ensure others are worse off. Odd phenomenon. Someone getting help whether govt assisted or charity doesn't hurt me, so why would I oppose it? I want my taxes to help people not help billionaires.

Can always tell when the football lot have been out. Dog shit left along the periphery of the pitches.

Fridays are chore days.
Saturdays are craft/chilling days.
Sundays are long run/or ride and delicious food days.

Wow the 🍊 🤡 offering money to Hungary to reelect a despot is something. Let's hope the Hungarians are smarter than the Argentinians.

When we move next year we're hoping to put solar panels on the house, battery storage and an electric car charge port (with Council approval).

Good on the Greens for winning the Cliftonville by-election. Hope wins over hate.

Not my circus, not my monkeys. My thoughts most of the time.

I lived during the 80s, and this is the most worried I've ever been about nuclear war. That orange fuckwit needs to go.

Lamb schwarma, couch cous and falafel. Lovely walk down the river and chocolate cake. Lovely day.

We could have nice things in the UK, but our politicians take money from billionaires.

Can you imagine hating your children and grandchildren so much you keep voting right wing. Fucking amazing. Most selfish generation constantly beating down all the rest.

A black and brown German shepherd licks whipped cream from a paper cup.

Ten mile run this morning. Then sla three mile walk with Harley. He had a pup cup and fancy dog biscuit.

Look we all know the 🍊 🤡 does what he's told by Pootypoots. War with Iran inevitably would cause western economies difficulties. So here we are. The US GOP is too afraid to remove him, and the rest of us have to wait for him to die. Great.
