On the 6th of June I walked into a back alley in Thailand and found 2 dogs looking like this.
They had been seriously neglected, caged up and used for breeding.
Even I find it hard to process where they are today and what they look like (1/8) 🧵

Boring is the new cool.
It's rare that James O'Brien and Nigel Farage are in the same room.
So when the Reform UK leader was leaving the LBC studios after his phone-in with Nick Ferrari, @mrjamesob delivered a one-of-a-kind handover.
It was 1987 when Kate Bush, English singer, songwriter, record producer and dancer, and David Gilmour gathered together in order to perform a song called 'Running Up That Hill' which is the greatest hit of all time for Kate Bush, live at Secret Policemans, Third Ball.
The song was released in 1985 within Catherine Bush's album Hounds of Love and it became a hit reaching number three on the UK singles chart, it was also named among the year's best tracks by Melody Maker and was nominated for British Single of the Year at the 1986 Brit Awards.
After 2 years of its release, two legends came together to perform this beautiful song together. Gilmour, as you may guess, took the guitar parts and back-up vocals along with Tony Franklin on bass and back-up vocals too.
Guitar lovers: Look at what Gilmour uses in his hands. Interesting but you'd love to see it for sure. That's what happens to me, too.
So, enough talking. Enjoy this rare and incredible footage.
