Gordon has been less loud today 🙂 We hiked in Chabot, it was really hot, which was not the best part. The best part was when Gordon played with me.

Couple Of Unlikely Similarities
1) The first few bars of Robyn’s hit ‘Dancing On My Own’… …sound a bit like ‘Ahead (II)’ (itself a remix of their own ‘Ahead’) by my beloved Wire: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbsugFJ3Ezc …but there the similarity ends. 2) The first few bars of Echo and the Bunnymen’s ‘My Kingdom’… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zbdy8eidI0 …sound a bit like ‘Baby Give It… Continue reading Couple Of Unlikely Similarities
Parcelforce Comments Keep Coming
Despite being posted ten years ago to the day, my very early post about Parcelforce being shit at what they do still receives comments from people who are also frustrated by their service. I’m glad that this blog is still relevant after all these years. Such anger!
Barked 100%
Gordon barked 100% of the drive to the park. Normally he shuts up once we get moving and reserves his voice for when I stop for other dogs. He must have had some weekend!

Alluring Voices In The Distance
Gordon made his presence know in Redwood today. He ran with a runner, barked at several women, and almost left me for alluring voices in the distance.
Abandon Me
Gordon had a very good hike in Leona Canyon today. He didn’t linger too much, nor did he attempt to abandon me, which I greatly appreciate 🙂
