I had that problem when I used to go to the same place in Greece all the time, I fed a stray one week, within a month there were about 12 there, giving me the sad eyes and wagging tails. I used to take stuff off the ferry to feed them, they were all strays and mongrels but I would have taken them all home!
Socketset:
I see he’s got his mate the collie on the lookout for more mugs arriving
Think your right, just as I was pullin off another truck came in and off he went, not so much as a lick tara or anything.
The yard in question was a bit old school, no hi viz needed etc and a pleasure to visit.
A few years ago I spent seven weeks in Las Palmas (I know terrible innit?) after being towed in on a broken down ship I was tryin to deliver to The Ghambia, within a short while of tying up a small dog like a miniature white alsation appeared at the gangway and stayed there all night. The cook who also happened to be my ‘uver arf’ at the time took pity on him so bathed him, to which he went away and rolled in the dirt, she de flead him, made me go to a pet shop and buy the little bugger loads of goodies and in the end was sleeping, to my disgust on our bed ! Anyway the day the repairs were completed and we were getting ready again to sail the little sod stood at the base of the gangway, barked a few times and slunk off up the quayside as if he knew we were going away. Often wondered what became of him, we called him Rambo and he responded to the name in the end.
