I left the room for two minutes, but made the mistake of leaving the heated blanket switched on. I knew the #Weimaraner would steal my seat but thought better of the #Husky

So much for my long lie in bed for the long weekend, Little Miss Jumping On The Bed At 8am.

I’m sitting on a sofa in a dark blue fluffy hoodie. A Weimaraner is in the foreground holding my hand with her paw.

Yeah, Ed Sheeran can fuck right off. We programmed a routine in our Echo dot two years ago for this very occasion.

They’re superb - we found them in Dunelm but I’m reliably informed that B&M do them as well.

Skye is NOT HAPPY that I’m holding her chew toy.

A blue Weimaraner sitting very nicely awaiting the return of her Nylabone chew toy. She has her eyes almost closed, looking pure ragin’ (as we’d say in Glasgow). In the background are the back legs of a Siberian Husky, happy to be getting peace and quiet from the trouble-pup.

Skye is the silliest of all the dogs we’ve had. As soon as I go for a nap on the sofa she insists on sleeping like this.

A middle aged man lying down on a sofa. A Weimaraner is lying down behind him with her head on top of his. The dog’s big floppy has big floppy ears which feel velvety but are not the ideal thing to have on one’s face when trying to get a bit of kip.

Well, I don’t know what’s happened but the dogs clearly aren’t talking to each other today.

A Weimaraner is lying down on a duvet on a sofa. A few feet away is a Dalmatian on the floor.

This is the view on the other side of the Dalmatian from the first photo. A few feet away on the other sofa is a Husky facing away from the Dalmatian.

This is how we are spending the Bank Holiday. I am into day 3 of a cold and cannot be bothered moving. Skye seems to be quite happy with this arrangement.

Sometimes I just can’t get over how bloody cute the dogs are with each other. (Not pictured: the independent Husky who is too warm for cuddles).

That reminds me of when by dogs formed a synth pop duo.

Two dogs sitting on the floor staring intensely at the camera. In front is a black, grey and white Husky, behind is a Dalmatian. Behind them is a desk with synths and speakers and headphones.

OMG THE PUPPY IS WATCHING ‘CLUE’!!! (The scene with the dogs at the start of the film).

Two dogs on a sofa - a Dalmatian and a Weimaraner. The Weim is staring at the television (out of shot in the photo) while the Dal is snuggled into a duvet because she’s seen Clue nearly as many times as I have.

Apparently this is how we’re snoozing on the sofa today. It’s not entirely uncomfortable but oh my goodness the snoring! (Hers, not mine). #Weimaraner

Valentine’s Lego has now been built! And I now have a use for the vases we kept from our wedding table decor ten years ago.

A table at the end of a hallway. There is a floor-to-ceiling window behind it with blue rose window film. On the centre of the table is a large lamp emitting a warm glow. On either side are two very tall slim vases filled with blue glass beads and pink Lego roses.

A close-up of pink Lego roses. They are very detailed with different designs. Some are partially open, others are fully open, and there are a couple of sprigs of Lego gypsophila.

A selfie from the tail end of last year. I’m wearing a fluffy hooded top, just had a haircut and a shave. Thanks to Clinique, not fully smiling, and being overweight, I’m mostly wrinkle-free in this photo and don’t look my age (I hope!).

My knee is much better now. However, I can’t feel my feet because of these three! No need for the central heating tonight though 😂

2016-2026 2016 was my stag do. 10-year wedding anniversary is at the end of this month.

January 2016. I’m standing outside in the cold in Glasgow smoking a cigar, wearing a checked shirt and a lightweight jacket. After all, I’m from Yorkshire so I’m not going to give in to the cold weather and wear a winter jacket.

Late 2025 (I don’t have a 2026 photo yet). I’m lying on a sofa with a Weimaraner puppy resting on my head. The main difference in me since 2016 is that I now have a bit more facial hair.
