What does poverty mean to you?

On breakfast this morning we heard that thousands of children in Kent are living in child poverty and that there are huge differences between the rich and the poor in the county.

How poor is poor?

Is it just about having a roof over your head and enough food to eat?

How much do you love your dog?

It is being claimed today that the average dog causes three family rows a week, as owners argue over where it can sleep and who should take it out for walks.

We speak to dog expert and editor of K9 magazine, Ryan O'Meara who has noticed an increase in the number of families falling out over their four legged friend.

And this morning we reveal the finalists for Kent's most popular food and drink awards, the Taste of Kent Awards 2012.

Thousands of members of the public have been voting for their favourite food and drink producers, retailers, restaurants, dining pubs and farmers' markets, a real celebration of what the garden of England produces.

More people than ever have voted this year, with lots of new nominees and the addition of four new categories for 2012.

We hear your views, opinions and stories.
