‘You taught me to care and to love in a way I didn’t know was possible. I am utterly heartbroken and d3vastated that it’s your time to go to the park in the stars, but I know you’ll be happy chasing all the squizzles for as long as your little heart desires.
‘You nestled your way into a space in my heart that will always be just for you. Thank you for 13 and a half years of the purest love, the deepest cuddles, the belly laughter and for being the best and most beautiful companion any person could ever wish for. I already miss you with every inch of my being.
‘You brought so much happiness to me and anyone who had the pleasure to love you. You truly were one of a kind my sweet Dolly.
‘Time for bed darling. I love you baby g1rl. Na night.’

Gok Wan opens new restaurant where diners eat food from the floor
In May Gok opened a brand new restaurant where diners are served food from the floor.
He is inviting foodies to his eatery FLOORS in Islington, north London, where they will be served Asian inspired dishes on the vinyl surface beneath their feet.
With no normal plates in sight, floor feasters have morsels served inside protective casings made from natural materials laid down directly on the ground.
Hungry folks can nibble on a tasting menu which includes lychee ceviche, served in a chilled oyster shell, lotus leaf steamed meats, with black bean peppered beef, duck, and oyster mushroom and black sesame mochi cake with fuyu sour cream and an edible rice paper receipt.
