Title: November 1987
Post by: Highett on February 25, 2013, 09:38:30 AM
My dog, He's dead now, old age catches us all at some point,

A Journalist took this photo one day on my way home from work, I saw it in the paper and they were kind enough to give me the negative.

I did some long runs back then and that dog (Grapa), Somehow he managed to sleep on the back on the move, best pillion I ever carried.

Here he is

Ahhh An old Bol'Dor, Highett.

I had a Silver one, sold it because it roasted me bollocks when the weather was hot here, got fed up having to stop and dance around at the side of the road trying to waft a bit of air round the family jewels and I'm sure it looked a bit odd to passing motorists.

If it hadn't been for that I'd probably still have it.

Hmm, not too sure that's a good idea carrying a dog like that. I appreciate it was back in 87 but even back then if you had a spill the dog would be toast. I'd be devastated if I injured any of my dogs through transporting them like that.
