Oh dear, Naga Munchetty, that dark green top you are wearing does not suit you!
Don't know what you'd call it, it's a very dark sort of ?teal?, with a black trim. Looks horrid against her dark skin.
Or maybe battleship green?

I had been watching the beeb this morning, then switched
channels to watch GMB. Extremely upsetting footage of
the treatment of 'tourist' elephants, they couldn't show some
of the images - far too distressing.
It's called 'Elephant crushing', both in spirit & body.

The
beautiful elephants are squished into small wooden cages
(with no room to even turn around), constantly mistreated,
chained up - the list goes on & on. All done for 'tourists' to
'enjoy' a holiday ride!
I can recall (some time ago), signing a petition in the hope
that travel agents will stop or be banned from advertising
these rides in holiday brochures, online etc. Well, the petition is
being presented today at no. 10. Hopefully something can
be done to put a halt to this. Poor elephants.

'This page is designed to give you an underlying knowledge
of what training methods were traditionally like for captive
elephants in Thailand, although the training practices of wild
caught elephants still resemble the below, with todays shift in
beliefs and tourism demands it is important to know that the
majority of captive breed elephants do not endure the same
brutal treatment.
Sadly many captive elephants in other parts of Asia still
endure similar barbaric treatment!'
Apologies for rant - just had to get it off my chest.
Swift change of subject to 'what's the weather like with
you today'?!
It's another sunny/hot/dry as a bone day here (temps
reaching 31+) plus a muggy night to look forward to!
I should really do a bit more culling in my food cupboards
too Pyxis, would hate to think of some of the out of date
stuff still lurking at the back!
Well done on your weight loss Sleazy.

Yes, International
Cat Day is 8th August!
Be back later!
