It’s not really news Dale, this has been understood for a good number of years, Pure White and Deadly was first published in 1972. Food and process are two words that should never be linked, ever. Yet again, it’s profit over health with Governments sitting idly by.

Spaniels Phroaig and Ardbeg bonding in the Hazlehead snow this morning. 8yo Phroaig loves the snow and this was 5mo Ardbeg’s first experience in snow.

Assistant Gardner Ardbeg “helping” to rake up the leaves in his own way.
On the upside, at least he’s not digging holes the grass!

It’s hard to believe Dearg (Golden Labrador) missed Ardbeg (Cocker Spaniel pup) when MrsK took the wee man down to our daughter’s for the weekend!
Ardbeg has now taken to climbing onto the chair to leap down on top of Dearg! 🤷♂️😂

Our boys are not terrified but the noise does increase stress levels.
Two of our previous Labs got frightened as they got older, we had to buy a pair of Muttmuffs for them. We also built them a wee den covered by duvets & blankets to try to deaden the percussion noise.

The boys are struggling with the clock change! It’s still after 5 in their heads so the dogs are ganging up to apply some serious pressure to Mum!
It ain’t gonna work boys!

Someone dinged my car door in a carpark & drove off! Spoke to the adjacent community cafe/leisure centre but there are no cameras covering the council carpark.
You can’t put that dent in someone’s door and leg it without knowing you did it.
Some folk are utter 💩s!!! 🤬

Got this rant via our walking group emails + some to\fro-ing generally lambasting the SNP for the state Scotland is in.
In less 5 mins I had the NHSUK covid vax eligibility screenshot + a BBC article on the restrictions in England!
Polite reply sent! 😡
We need to keep correcting these porkies! 🏴

4 month old Ardbeg’s first caravan trip to an Agility competition to watch how Phroaig, Bruich and other big dogs do it!
He likes the idea of standing on the seats to view the world through the caravan windows.

Had the second of 2 IV infusions last week. I need them every 6 months, cost for the product in the US is $20-30K. Hospital charges will be on top of that.
Does Nigel care if those of us with pre-existing conditions can get medical insurance cover?
Not chance!

Just watched “Jagged”, a SKY Documentary about the utterly brilliant Alanis Morissette. Well worth watching, now, where’s my copy of Jagged Little Pill (only 33 million copies sold!)?

Mind you, from what’s been reported this doesn’t appear to be a CIA operation. More like Trump has used some more of his amateur hour “Good ole Boy” sycophants!

Brilliant listen on BBC Sounds (not a link)! 👇
The story of Eloise Page’s exploits in the CIA, from 1947. She was involved in the overthrow of an Iranian PM who wanted to nationalise oil. That also involved renaging on a deal with a guy called Khomeini!
The rest, as they say, is history…
