The Cartel Has Set Policy For The Next Decade

The Girl Cartel (aka The Pony and The Bunny) hath spoken, and Toasty is no more.

The new name is "Bermondsey."

This is not just an unusual name, and not just the area where we stayed in London. It is also descriptive of the dog himself--it is an area of warehouses right on the Thames, south of London, that had fallen on hard times. Many of the warehouses were abandoned, especially following the bombings of WWII.

Over the last 20 years, the area became a pioneering place for renovation, creating flats and offices. Currently, it is the site of a great deal of new construction and gentrification.

Like the dog, who has suffered some hard times, but is on his way to better things.

Of course, since we tend to "over name" our animals, his full name is "Constable Windsor Bermondsey of the Back Yard."

When he heard this, Mr. Sweetie laughed, then rolled his eyes to heaven, seeking understanding from above since his family down here is obviously insane.
