Dogdaddy to a rescue sighthound and yes I would love to see pictures of your dogs.
I'd recommend this series to anyone tbh. It crosses the pond well. Funny, exciting, tremendously page turning, and humane.

Hey @batfett.bsky.social -- fancy one of these?

Or is it a star wars too far?

Haha I wish they'd gone for some humour here.

It's worth it! A good read that I much enjoyed and I'm not usually a crime fiction reader

Very tempted to adopt a lovely grey who is very fresh off the racing world and very shy, not sure what to make of people.

Blue was SO friendly from the start. So easy to love!

lovely #greyhound folks... Have you ever had one that didn't warm up? Or that you didn't warm to?

I haven't plugged my book in ages, and with #Halloween coming up, now is a great time to read an action-packed #vampire urban fantasy.

It's basically Buffy meets Trainspotting.

✅ Strong female lead
✅ Funny bits
✅ Ass-Kicking

I think you'll enjoy it #booksky

Little Loki knapsack... Just needs to be attached to a stick and I'll have all I need to run away from home!

Little known fact: as the weather gets colder, whippets turn into dragons.

Rar.

Be very scared.

This was from one of the holidays we took with both the boys. A wonderful holiday cottage that was totally set up for dogs. This was the first Blue (🌈) learned how to jump up on sofas! Little Loki showed him the way. In the evenings I'd join them and we watched Wolf Hall. Log fire. Bliss.

They didn't often share a bed, and this one was more a product of Lokis love of the sun than any real fondness between them. Blue (🌈) looks unimpressed. #greyhound #dogsofbluesky #whippet

I've been watching Star wars episode 4 on Disney Plus.

It's definitely not the best version. The CGI looks awful and the scene with Han and Greedo is unforgivable.

I still have cassette tapes from the THX remaster they did in...1994? 1996? They're fine. Or at least better than this!

You'd never guess the length of the rapsheet on this boy when he's lying here looking like this...

Is there a precise moment when video games just...enshittified?

I've been a serious gamer my entire life and now I look at what's on offer and just....bleh.

When the most interesting thing to talk about is skins, or another sequel, or an IP crossover event, or a twitch stream... Lost its way

Some sad news, I'm afraid. Our greyhound, Mister Blue, died swiftly and unexpectedly yesterday morning. Vet at a loss; likely a spinal injury triggering shock and heart failure. No warning, and no real history of trouble. From running around daft to dead in 30 minutes. We're gutted, obviously. (1/2)

Just in case anyone in the south London region is looking to adopt a very sweet hound, an acquaintance of mine is having sadly to return his boy to FOAL farm.
FOAL are a wonderful outfit. That's where we got our Loki

Sigh. Not cool Loki, not cool.
Need a different bed solution for him I think. And refresh the separation anxiety training. No biggie.
