There are some strange people about.

Watch and see if you agree with what this person wrote!

When you’re watching the snooker it is, of course, entirely appropriate to adjust your lighting accordingly 😀

Today would’ve been Amber’s 15th birthday. 10 weeks since she passed over the rainbow bridge. Miss her terribly 💔🐾🌈

5 out of 8 EV charging bays ICEd at my local Sainsbury’s when I popped in there for a top up shop this afternoon.

2 free bays. 1 Audi e-tron charging.

Pretty typical for this store. If you’ve got Chademo you couldn’t charge as the bay for that was one of those that was ICEd. 😬

This is all fine and dandy for "wealthy" people, but outside of London, most people are relatively "poor", going "green" is a play thing that half the country simply can't afford, that's the sad truth of the matter. My answer: I'm not wealthy. I don't live in London. Next question.

There have been a handful of posts on that account that have made me question whether it is, such as this one. 👇🏻 It doesn’t seem like the kind of thing he’d say.

I’ll keep an open mind!

I asked for a doggy ice cream when I bought some drinks. They didn’t have any so the kind lady in the kiosk put some whipped cream in a container for Amber 🥰🐾🐶

I don’t have a clue apparently

Thank goodness there are people in the world who feel that they should tell me that 🙄

It’s a bit of a relief to be honest. I was worried I had a valid opinion to give. I’ll get back in my box and stop saying words

Comment made by @zaar2604 to video called “Driving My EV Instead Of Taking The Train” by Andy Clayton of The Rambly Channel: 17:00 you are one of those people who did not happen to see the fucking road signs in the past 3 miles saying exactly which lane to take to get where you want to go and end up jumping the queue a the very end. I have had to take the exact same motorway to Heathrow multiple times and the amount of people who knowingly jump the queue is infuriating.

Amber walking through the woods on Tuesday. I have to keep her on the lead most of the time otherwise she risks walking into things, bless her l, but here she is having a brief wander under her own steam ❤️🐶🐾

Here I am with Amber ginger cheeky sausage chops in The New Forest yesterday.

The car park I was heading for was full so I drove a short distance to another one and discovered a new walk I didn’t know existed. That’s the beauty of the forest, so much to explore and enjoy.

Here’s Amber paying close attention at her dog training class last Tuesday. She did so well this week for an old lady. Very proud of her. ☺️🥰🐶🐾

So the fossil fuel apologists have started posting comments to my “Why Your Next Car Should Be An EV” video. I’m surprised it took them so long… 😂

Sunday was trim day! 😬

Amber copes with it all very well. Just stands there and lets it happen.

Afterwards we went for a nice walk and it didn’t rain (got soaked on Saturday!) 🥰🐶🐾
