The other day I got this strange text message on my phone saying I’d been sent a video message, from a phone number I didn’t recognise, pointing me to Orange‘s MMS site. Thinking it was spam I forgot about it for a few days, but then as I was sending a text message today I noticed it again.

On checking it out, I found it was a short and grainy video of Chalky, my father’s new greyhound. It must have been taken by his partner’s son, which was why I didn’t recognise the number.

It just makes me wish I had a greyhound as well now. Especially with the Adopting the Racing Greyhound book I got for Christmas.
