I really don't know what they mean, it's a dogs life? I mean, of course it's a dog's life who else's life would it be? Smudge 🐾🐾

Hello gang, Smudge here. Just to let you know, I'm feeling a lot better. I've even started playing Tug-a-Squirrel again. But it's so cold tonight I'm wearing it as a scarf. Thanks to all my friends in the shops in Kings Road that supplied me with dog treats on Saturday. 🐾🐾🐾

So sad to hear of the death of Pauline Collins. A great inspiration to me as a young actor. Encouraging of my fledgling career and sponsoring me into the Actors Equity. She and husband John starred in Wodehouse Playhouse, an adaptation by my father, writer David Climie. They were exquisite in it. ❤️🙏
R.I.P. Pauline Collins. Seen here with John Alderton in Wodehouse Playhouse - Portrait of a Disciplinarian (7th May 1975)

A writing day that stirred memories and emotions. The perfect cure this eve listening to the brilliant Simon Townshend's song BARE ESSENCE, from his equally brilliant album DENIAL

When we entered the café, the man directed us to a table and told us to take a seat. I'm not sure what you're supposed to do with a seat. This one felt a bit more like a kennel and I didn't know where I was supposed to take it. Humans are strange. #BedlingtonTerrier

Smudge was doing a good impression of 'shiver my timbers' in the car today, so I lent him one of my snoods. #BedlingtonTerrier

Yesterday I passed my last PhD independent review, taking me into my final year. So now heading into the last furlong, at the end of which I hope to be wearing a funny hat.
