always thought L/R was a bit of nonsense.
But I tend to comply.
Been walking on the Camino de Santiago where everyone obsesses about feet, socks and shoes.
So the slightest things like L / R sock compliance becomes a thing.
Embarrassed to say I wore silk socks

Did the job though

I find it hard to part with them too,

Not seen a drop of rain for 11 days.
Seems to be mostly down the South.
They could do with some here though.
Some of the grapes in Rioja looking a bit parched.
Back home today

Anywhere else and those Oil Drums would be on the walls of a trendy Bar.
Or indeed on the walls of a Shed Bar in someone’s garden.

They don’t half dress up the race horses in Japan.
Haru Urara in a jaunty Pretty Kitty headgear.
Mind you, given the right weather in South Wales and the local horses go for a rainbow number.

Haru Urara even got a mention in the Japanese Parliament.
During the 2004 recession
Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi said.
“I’d like to see Haru Urara win, even just once. The horse is a good example of not giving up in the face of defeat”

Haru Urara
Was hugely popular during her racing ‘career’
Betting slips with her name and a guaranteed loss became a charm or symbol of good luck,
Particularly against traffic accidents or being made redundant.
