What a lively walk with #sophiefromromania this morning at sunrise - pursuing squirrels (without success), growling at speedy Shuggy the collie, taking a treat from his owner, smelling a rat and home for a fine breakfast

Enjoying this rather well written memoir by the last Tory chief whip. Struck by his use of the adjective ’Trumpian’ to denote dishonesty - eg BoJo at “Trumpian’ levels in asserting his innocence. Maybe the BBC should bring him in as a defence witness in any Trump libel suit?

Just met adorable Arlo, the new puppy on our street. I think we may need to be cautious about introducing him to #sophiefromromania who can be a little boisterous with small dogs
