Pegging?

When you get older and your bedtime starts shifting earlier and earlier, that's called the Ovaltine Window

Gotta love a stat. I love my bubble. Love my GSD.

It’s a date for your calendar.

Done, done and done. Would business benefit? Yes. Would locals benefit? Yes. It’s a no brainer.

Heads up! I’m part of the left wing industrial complex. Also a paid up member of the super secret cycling conspiracy. Known to employ pronouns willy-nilly.

I’d always been mockingly cynical about dog ice cream but this shit is the shit.

Buy from people, it’s more expensive and get more than you paid for!

Unapologetic nazi.

Miso is getting too big for her basket so we utilised the extension, but…..

We had to let Tito go today. For 15 yrs he was our beloved. He slipped away in his mums arms after a last meal and plenty of kisses. We are bereft. RIP Tito Benito Carmelito.

Dear @ternbicycles.com. As I work in the bike trade I can get a reasonable deal on the new GSD. Because I work in the bike trade I can’t afford one.

LONDON CALLING

I know privatised corporations are struggling but WTF is Thames Water doing increasing my bill by 33%? Pouring cash on stockholders I guess while piping shit into rivers.

Amidst the trauma there’s dogs on bikes to salve the soul.

Elon Musk is a terrible president.

Just as we made a lot more hand sanitizer and now it’s cheap enough for everyone to have clean hands, we can build enough homes so they get cheaper and everyone can have a place to live.

Is this on any American MSM or are the media moguls too scared?

There walk among us petrosexualists who will still claim that ULEZ is a tax/war on motorists. The evidence proves it is boon for Londoners and a £ saving for the NHS.

My latest dad skill. Finding the smoothest tarmac between Marylebone and Brixton to not wake the puppy. Typical that the worst are the cycle paths through Hyde Park and over Chelsea bridge.

At least I don’t have yet another subscription to maintain.

If you check your Google calendar you’ll see it isn’t international women’s day after all Fuck you very much Kapoogle.

The best, the very best thing about my job? Staying in touch with our alumni. Babatunde, we.love.you.

Niceness

The words Brixton, and Windmill, aren’t often uttered together. Brixton Prison, just behind windmill, are.
