I was watching the news the other night and there was a plea from Shenton Park Dog Refuge for warm blankets for their rescued dogs.

So from 1st July to 30th July 2008 I am organising a drive for any unwanted blankets, towels etc that you are willing to part with!

They can be dropped at;

Brigadoon Produce (1125 Great northern Hwy, Baskerville) [Horse feed store]

Horseland Madington (1868 Albany Hwy, Maddington) [between Austin Ave and Kelvin Rd]

Please note that the blankets must be bagged up (ie in a garbage bag) to be accepted!

i am in the process of organising a south drop off point and will update as soon as i have it confirmed.

Here is the link to Shenton Park Dog Refuge if you want some more information! (not-for-profit organisation)

Interesting that they employ a 'no kill' policy.

Oh and spread the word!! it would be nice to get enough blankets so that there are no little cold doggies at Shenton!

(this drive was originally started for horse rugs/blankets to be donated (hence the horse store drop off's ) but im sure a few of you guys can muster up some normal blankets!)

if you can't donate blankets perhaps a cash donation or dog food.. there are plenty of shelters around perth that need help... please try not to donate to the RSPCA if you can help it. They have plenty of money and govt funding.

      I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.

      Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.

      Yeah that's what I meant, permanently connected not manual

      Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.

      There was a good video somewhere, maybe Kurzgesagt that linked physical activity to ADHD/Anxiety/Insomnia etc. Basically the body WILL spend energy doing something if you don't spend it doing anything physical. It isn't fun, but I personally have noticed I've never been overthinky, or unable to sleep if I'm physically exhausted from doing a lot. The musings around it seem to indicate that this is one of the reasons/mechanism that physical activity improves mental health/wellbeing etc, by more or less not using that 'extra' energy to overthink, be anxious, inflammation, etc. There's also the fact that every obnoxious exerciser ever says it's great and helps which is extremely annoying. Like people who say the same thing about travel being the best thing ever. I mean, they clearly are, but blah. I started doing a LITTLE myself (think 3x15min per week) and honestly did notice the benefits, aiming at life quality when older. Which is sooner than you think. Getting something into your routine that you can actually make a routine has helped me at least. This post brought to you by procrastination between sets.
