Dog day afternoon

A successful day making recycled dogs

only one of which lost it's head.

Oil on troubled waters

I'm coming out of self imposed yoga hibernation to share with you a sad photo of an oil leak in our local marina. I took the photo hanging off the back of the boat. Small bier by oil slick standards. What on earth are we doing to our planet?

On a more cheerful note, here are my planet saving efforts. A mini bottle stuffed with plastic bag that I'll be making with the school kids tomorrow.

It reminds me of an old joke from my Scottish childhood. You would say to someone 'have you ever seen a green dug?' (dug was how we pronounced 'dog'). The answer you were hoping for was no at which point you could laugh scornfully and say 'you've never seen anyone digging their garden?' (green was slang for back garden).

We were easily amused in those days. Enjoy the green dug.
