It's now almost 3 years and 1 month since we were forced to say forever goodbye to Little Loaf.
So whenever I spot a Norfolk terrier - which is a rare rare thing since it isn't a common breed in Sweden - I have to have a long look and if in any way possible say 'hi'.
When we bought the frames the other day and were on our way to the check out I suddenly saw this little fella. Squee! We both kind of froze and stood staring quietly. I think we rather scared the owner, perhaps we were potential dognappers?
I explained that our Norfolk had passed away and this fella - who turned out to be a girl - looked so much like him. She was such a darling! A bit more hesitant in greeting strangers and not an as exuberant people lover as Malte, but still that look and the constantly wagging tail, the notion that it is indeed impossible to pose for a photo when there's promise of a good sniff and cuddle.
I was so taken with the meet cute I actually forgot to ask her name and age. But she will forever be remembered as 'the best thing ever found at Clas Ohlson'. CO being a notoriously known day care center for men ie a reasonably priced shop for household items, hardware and technical gadgets etc.
It's a shop boring beyond words really, BUT they also offer good frames, pink water kettles and unexpected meet cutes with blurry photo objects.
"Day care for men" ... lol, the best!
ReplyDeleteOh what a sweetie.
ReplyDeleteAlways lovely to read your thoughts. Perhaps one day you make a great coffee table book to read when one feels a little down. Your wit is uplifting. (Or perhaps you already have one published?)
ReplyDeleteawwww, I love this post.
