Oh my goodness, we have gone FULL CIRCLE! We learnt about the website which displays photos of upside down dogs, which was followed up quite neatly with the photo of Spice, the exhibitionist hound; as well as the untimely death of a reader’s upside down dog.

I really wish we had these things in my day in London. My God, we hoarded a lot of crap. I remember carting a life-size Scooby Doo cardboard cut-out from digs to digs, all over London – along with the other crap (larva lamp included). I never did see the irony in boasting that the […]
