Why this Blog?

A place where I can lament the changing times; for eccentric comments on current affairs and for unfashionable views, expressed I hope, in cogent style; also occasional cris de coeur largely concerned, I regret to say, with myself.

Fortunate Tiger Cubs

Source: BBC

The BBC's website reports today that three tiger cubs abandoned by their mother, have been "adopted" by a dog.  This has taken place at a zoo in Sochi in Southern Russia.

Fortunate indeed to be in Russia.  After all, had this taken place in the UK and the dog been a member of the UK Independence Party, then those little tigers would have to be bottle-fed - and motherless, and thereby assured of a politically-correct upbringing.

Until the next time

but...... if the foster dog had been a member of UKIP, the cubs would have been taken away and given to fundamentalist social workers who could then have a case conference about which other fundamentalist to farm them out with (separately)

and in Vietnam we`d`ve justen eaten the dog.........O

Quite so; I had not considered the fundamentalist consequences - perhaps better to be motherless after all, even with curried dog for supper.
