Today Stark went to the vets to be weighed for his flea treatment and he's now a whopping 11.4kg! He's definitely not my little boy anymore! The nurse said she reckoned he be at the higher end of the usual collie weight bracket as he's so tall. It was nice to have a day off in the sun and to wear a dress instead of my work uniform. So today's PED is of my lovely Hawaiian 50s style dress. 

Song Of The Day: Nine Inch Nails - Wish  
Reason: Really can't wait to hear their new album. 

Highlight Of The Day: Buying some hair dye! Bye bye roots.

Inspiration Of The Day: Victorian mental institutions. I was watching the new Broadmoor documentary on the CI channel and its really fascinating to see how psychology has developed over the years.

Today we went for a walk at Eastham Woods Country Park. It was a bit of a trek to get to but was a really huge place to walk around. It was really nice with plenty of other dogs for Stark to play with. There was also lots of sculptures carved out of wood, including a huge snake, a person and a real Victorian bear pit complete with carved bears! 

Song Of The Day: Queens Of The Stone Age - Everybody Knows That You're Insane 
Reason: I'm going to see them in November! So excited!!!

Highlight Of The Day: Eating tea outside

Inspiration Of The Day: The bear pit. So strange to think there were zoos that once kept animals in such poor conditions. It's also crazy to imagine all the Victorian people going to see creatures they'd never seen before.
