The dogecoin spinoff known as shiba inu jumped 30% after Tesla CEO Elon Musk tweeted another pictureof his pup late Sunday.

I wonder if he was sitting down with his buddies smoking a fat one having a laugh before he said….. ”Hey..Watch this!” 🤣

Okay not in the literal or even virtual sense of the word. It’s Wednesday. Officially referred to humpday here in the uk. We’re over the hump towards the weekend. It was really supposed to start winding down after the Summer ended (which feels like some time in mid June weather wise anyway) but if anything it’s been relentless. Last week out with the team in London after the previous night out with Sales. Next weekend up to London again for a play with Jennifer Saunders (interestingly that one had terrible reviews) and then next Tuesday I’m on the 2.45am ferry over to Ireland. Fingers crossed there are no delays as it’s the first time I’ll be travelling with Benson post Brexit and the paperwork is quite a chore. Think happy thoughts and of course happy humpday!
