Rudie barked a lot at Adam Bandt (but he’s notoriously right wing)

Thanks for all your positive vibes folks. Millie is home and with a really funky haircut. She has to be isolated from the other animals for 2 weeks and need to keep an eye on her stitches but so pleased to have her back.

This is her brother Misha

All positive vibes need to be directed to Queen Millie who had to have surgery this afternoon and is in for a long recovery ❤️🙏❤️🙏

4 days into the new year and first emergency vet visit, this time Mr Rudie with a sore foot. He’s feeling very sorry for himself and hoping it gets better in the next few days so he doesn’t need an operation.

Such technological advancements mean that now we can get AI to roast us. Perhaps accurately - ‘academic with a side of pug mischief’

Rough week. Throw back to baby Rebel. You can’t be sad when looking at this picture

Last week we celebrated our 3rd gotcha day with Mr Rudie. We think he was just over a year old when we adopted him. He’s full of nonsense and a total space invader but is a lovely wee doggy. Just don’t ever leave anything remotely edible out in his presence.

Went to give blood and only on intake did I realise I went to South Korea recently. Thankfully could still give plasma.

Today’s RA is very chill and not terribly helpful although doesn’t woof every 5 mins, which is a bonus.

This week has been one of shitty people with shitty opinions. But just read this and what a marvellous book.

Just read some of the DRC report to Rudie and look at his face.

Not clear why Duolingo thinks I will need this sentence, but also may not be totally wrong.

We just got the cover for our new edited collection on public management and COVID-19. Should be out early next year.

That’s North Korea behind me there.
