An absolutely tragic 4/15
In my defence, I was pretty much a puddle for most of the week, and now the heatwave has finally ended here and I can open my windows again, I was woken this morning at 6:30 by the council starting to remove the road surface directly outside my bedroom.

If you were a poodle, what are you this week?

If you were a poodle, what are you this week?

Well it was a puddle rather than a dog breed, but if I had been a poodle last week then this week I'd be some sort of annoyed yappy thing that's basically just angry at everything and has zero chill whatsoever. That's what early morning roadworks outside my bedroom do to me.

No Ta Doctor, no points to give as he never posted a score. He's woken up and you have another 12. Nice of him.
