My feet are cold because Speedy always slept under the covers curled up at my feet and now he is not there because he is dead. When we first took Speedy home he had kennel cough. It was gross but the snot was literally dripping out of him. We swore that he would not sleepContinue reading “Why are my feet so cold?”

I am angry, I am really fucking angry, I am really, really, really fucking really angry. I am angry because Speedy G died. I am angry that he died and he should not have died.

I have deliberately not named the man in question but my own local Councillors are aware of the case and haveContinue reading “An open letter to our Councillors”

‘Why are my floors so dirty?’ I keep saying this aloud, to myself, to anyone who can listen. Ironically the only thing that always listened to me was Speedy G! ‘Why are my floors so dirty?’- simple answer, because Speedy is gone. He was a more dependable hoover than my Vax. When I am choppingContinue reading “Why are my floors so dirty?”
