election result special

the poll of the world for lurcher of the year, and most attractive dog has now closed (see side panel). The result is an overwhelming vote for President Spot (the hairy, black one), with 77% of the vote cast (by 7 to 1 !! (one spoilt vote)). Provided that there are no sudden changes in the count, or vote rigging by GOP (friends of Harriet, the smooth brown one) Spot is declared the winner. May he rule wisely and kindly. And we wish whoever wins the other little election good luck and a fair wind; none of us can afford for you to fail, or to let us down.

Sometimes it's downright scary to drop your ballot in the box knowing what a challenge the winner will face. Heaven help us whoever wins.

Spike says congrats to Spot. A worthy, insightful winner. Seems like it's the season to cut out all the dead wood that's around. Along with the odd redundant bush.
In nature you often have to cut back to get new growth.
