    yes - he is called micky and I play with him everyday. Sometimes when in public I let other people pet and rub him but not every day.
    This one time in a park a bus load of oldies saw his and were all like oohh look at that majestic fella - give us a squeeze. He liked the attention but their old hands were rough so it wasn't very comfortable.

    Do you like old people

    To slow down and enjoy the small things in life instead of trying to fastpace it.

    What is one habit you have adopted in the pandemic that you will carry on doing after?

    Not as such because I keep an eye on my weather forecasts, but it did seem freaky to have snow yesterday after it was like 20C two days before.

    Have you used public transport during the pandemic?
