Ali and I went to the local market in Nazare with Milo. Not such a good idea as it was heaving with people and they all seemed to be eating something. Milo scrambled under most stalls grabbing castoff crusts, he even stuck his head under a babies pram trying to steal it's food. Then he found a stall holders lunch on a shelf and swallowed it whole before I could stop him. Ali and I made a run into the crowd before we got chased. Needless to say I didn't buy anything at the market and won't be taking Milo again. Although I was stopped on many occasions by people asking if they could stroke the beautiful dog, who is now described as 'an English gentleman dog'. We then went shopping and nearly bought lions masks and fake bum knickers but settled for a new mop and bucket.
I'm trying to make more effort to look half decent when I walk Milo on the beach as there are lots of fishermen down there. Now I know a fisherman is not a prince, like a farmer wasn't a prince but I'm starting to think I might have to settle for less...
Shopping...
Me making an effort for the fishermen...
Hi Nicci, thanks for the update & fun photos, it looks an amazing place, i was laughing at Milo snatching food, sounds like he's having fun. Stay happy. Love from Pat & Jake the dog. xx
ReplyDeleteHi Pat & Jake, Milo seems to think it's Christmas dinner everyday! :) xx
DeleteMaybe your destiny is to fall for a fisherman, let`s hope he would not be offended by thinking you settled for less :) A prince in disguise perhaps? Here are the lyrics to an old folk song xxx The Fisherman
ReplyDeleteAs I walked out one May morning
Down by a riverside,
And there I spied a fisherman
Come rowing down the tide,
Come rowing down the tide;
And there I spied a fisherman
Come rowing down the tide.
“Good morning to you, fisherman,
Good morning, Sir, I pray,
For calling you a fisherman
Just by the break of day,
Just by the break of day;
For calling you a fisherman
Just by the break of day.”
He rowed his boat unto the shore
And tied it to a stake,
He stepped up to this lady gay
And hold of her did take,
And hold of her did take;
He stepped up to this lady gay
And hold of her did take.
Then he pulled off his morning gown
And spread it on the ground,
And there she spied three chains of gold
All from his neck hung down,
All from his neck hung down;
And there she spied three chains of gold
All from his neck hung down.
Down on her bended knee did fall;
“Oh pardon, Sir, on me
For calling you a fisherman;
Come rowing on the sea,
Come rowing on the sea;
For calling you a fisherman;
Come rowing on the sea.”
“Rise up, rise up, my pretty maid,
And come along with me;
There's not one word that you have said
That least offended me,
That least offended me;
There's not one word that you have said
That least offended me.”
“I'll take you to my father's house
And married we shall be,
And you shall have a fisherman
To row you on the sea.
I'll take you to my father's house
And married we shall be,
And you shall have a fisherman
To row you on the sea,
To row you on the sea;
And you shall have a fisherman
To row you on the sea.
I love this Sheila :)))
