A Fantastic Friday

Well yesterday was as wet as an otter's pocket, today is dry as a bone, which is mighty lucky as Tracey and I have another early morning running date. It's black as night when I go out to get Trace, [Read More]

The Mad Monsoon

There's a monsoon this morning and the rain is my alarm clock naturel. It's raining cats, dogs and a whole pet zoo out there. I make a dash for the gym and in the couple of minutes it takes me to get [Read More]

The Last Day of Summer
