We went to the birthday party of one of my 7 year old students on Tuesday. After being subjected to lots of excited little girls, Ian was obviously in need of a strong drink so we nipped into Pepes on the way home. The funny thing was, we had taken Pixie to the party, as we thought she might be appreciated. She was pretty much ignored.
….however it was completely a different matter in Pepes. Not only was she much adored – however one of the big roughty-toughty builders even took a photo of her! Amazing – this is the bar where the television station of choice is the hunting channel, where hunting knives are sold from behind the bar and where the two main topics of conversation are hunting and / or asparagus. How strange that a little dog got so much attention – I like to think it was because they liked her and not because they saw her as hunting material.
