I had some help from Poppy when doing some forestry yesterday. She’s hopeless with the chainsaw but can fetch a stick. #BTPosse #Terriertuesday

'If Nigel Farage's Racism Is Forgotten It Will Give Him Permission for Far Worse' When someone tells you who they are, over and over again, it is wise to listen, argues Clive Lewis MP

"What is emerging about Nigel Farage is not a single stupid comment or heated moment. Former classmates are describing a pattern of behaviour. Not just a bully, but a racist bully of the ugliest kind, directing hatred at black and Jewish pupils as a kind of sport."

The #neighbourhood of our #BTPosse is the England-Scotland border. The Coldstream Bridge in the background crosses the River Tweed and the border. How could we have any other type of dog? They all come from a breeder near Otterburn close to where the breed was developed. #TerrierTuesday.

Redirecting...

A couple of days before the Trump parade the Coldstream Guards marked their 375th anniversary by marching through the town of Berwick upon Tweed (pop. 13,000) where they were formed. That’s how you do it www.facebook.com/share/v/1Dkt...

In Toronto for a family wedding. I’m not sure that Le Corbusier’s concept that a tower block should be surrounded by park land and amenity space has been understood.
