No strictly my own dog, and I don’t even live there any more, but my parents got a new dog the other month – Rex! Something I never thought they’d do, but it’s been great getting to spend time here over xmas. I don’t think I’ll really be able to have my own one for a good while, I work too much and then spend too much time away – and that’s not forgetting I don’t even have my own proper place yet!

Saw some quite amazing amateur art pieces someone was trying to sell in town the other day, but didn’t have any money so didn’t get to asking how much they were. If they’re there again though I’d love to get one, they were really very special.
Since I set this task I’ve made good friends with several people from my job at the council and also on my new degree. It kinda helped having those changes in my life which meant I met these new people, but it is great to have more people I feel I can randomly catch up with.
