I knit, I bake, I read, I run. (contexo, coquo, lego, curro) English in Canada and Lefty in the tweedy Bennite sense. Deliberately dull. Deliberately kind. Deliberately anti fascist. Radio fan and Archers addict, maker of pretty decent curries.

I hope that this could be the start of the return of the woolly dog breed to the Salish, as a knitter and dog lover, it is heartbreaking to know that colonialist cruelty took these dogs way from the Salish, at the minimum we owe them that return.

The only known woolly dog pelt has returned to Canada. It's a 'powerful moment' for Indigenous communities | CBC Radio
For thousands of years, woolly dogs played an integral role in the lives of Salish and Makah peoples, who bred them and used their silky white fur for weaving. But the beloved animals were driven to e...

I know that people think I am boring now, because I don't drink anymore and running is my entire personality. But I am fit, healthy, happy and feel very alive.

Oh my heart, Dolly yesterday, Tim today. I admired Dolly, but I loved Tim. When I say a vhs copy of Rocky Horror in the early 80's, it taught baby gay Adrian that it was ok to be different. I had the soundtrack on cassette, and knew every word to every song. #TimCurry

I don't think I have ever been angrier at #theArchers, than I have this evening. Ruth was just vile, imagine exposing a child to gore because he's overwrought with emotion about the fate of a dog he loves. This storyline just keeps getting more and more unpleasant.

I knew this would be the end of this, and even now he's been hounded to his death, they will still find ways to drag this on. I have no opinion on this mans complicated life and claims, but no white academic would have been as micro scrutinised as he and his black colleagues are and have been.

That ad trying to sell me a better running cap - scam That ad trying to sell me a magnetic running camera - scam. Are they, I don't know, everything else being advertised is, or seems to be, so I have to assume they are too. My rule of thumb, if it a paid ad, with a discount or a deal. ITS A SCAM!

I was run director today, so went for a post #parkrun run on m'tod though our beautiful Victoria park here in #trurons No glasses with me, so I didn't realise what a dorky face I was pulling, and people wonder why I don't smile often. The cobra chickens moved politely off the road before I passed

I don't buy a drink from Tims very often, but while they run this tone deaf Harry Potter themed campaign, I will be avoiding Terf Hortons like the plague. In Canada we support our trans sisters and brothers, because there is no LGB without the T.

Well, we still have quite a few bees left in the tree, I'm told that it can take a few days before the drones left behind decide to join the New colony. Either that or the bee guy didn't manage to capture the queen, and the swarm is heading back our way and regathering in the tree.

While I am sorry that her death was violent, I would wish that on no one. I will not eulogise a truly vile woman who made Thatcher look progressive and spent her career working hard to make other peoples lives worse. Maybe she had some virtues, but she never displayed them.

I tail-walked #parkrun today, and then afterwards ran an alternate route with a deviation around the ponds to give my creaky knees a break from the strain from the hills after turnaround on our regular route.
