Today is lashing rain&wind. Yesterday I was able to take photos of new puppy&his mentor. He learns how to behave when I’m busy at a job which is of no interest to him. Puppy boredom is never easy to combat but having a mature dog to show what to do takes away huge amount of stress from puppy&myself

A present to myself. Received in today’s post. This book was recommended to me by a very old friend. It’s beautifully illustrated with excellent detailed descriptions. Second hand via awesome books.

I made a fundamental mistake on Valentine’s Day🤦‍♀️ I forgot to buy myself a really good box chocolates. Being celiac I can only eat really good chocolates. Cheap chocolates have gluten. Also I really don’t like after taste that palm oil leaves after eating chocolates made with it

Them? I and this quote are talking about individuals. God has nothing to do with it. I’ve met way to many individuals who spout godly nonsense and a basically immoral & dehumanise others. So it’s a humane, moral and ethical issue.
