8 years ago today I brought this little one home to start our lives together, how lucky I was that we found each other when we both needed each other the most. Here's to greyhounds finding homes, and finally being loved πŸ’š And here's to an end to greyhound racing! πŸ‘πŸ»

Do you think this is acceptable @sainsburys.bsky.social? To block a pavement like this, right on a junction? And force a pedestrian into a busy and dangerous road to continue their journey? All whilst the driver was rude and behaved as if they were in the right?

I wanted my first BlueSky post to be of my first greyhound Graham. He would have been 10 today. This photo is from a few months after he came in to my life, many years ago. He was very unsure of the world, but at a time when I felt a bit lost too we found our place in a very muddled world together πŸ’•

Just on BBC Radio Oxford talking about how individuals can reduce emissions - and how it can save you money and make you healthier. πŸŒ±πŸ’š Here's the five ways my family have done it:

The cost of living crisis is a crisis driven by fossil fuels. It's a crisis of inequality where richest 1% of the world emit more than poorest two thirds. Marching today with @thegreenparty.bsky.social & lots of organisations for social, racial, economic & environmental justice. πŸ‡΅πŸ‡ΈπŸŒŽβœŠπŸΌ
