Interesting theme me Mam's local news has with dogs. We Irish do love our horses, but then we do love our dogs too. Seems someone reported a rather friendly Red and White Irish Setter running amok between the row houses, and when the local constabulary arrived the silly setter was nowhere to be seen. Then an hour later a man on Dublin Road had a Red and White Irish Setter follow him to his door. He was concerned because as he said to the local constables, "It's a pretty dog, I'd hate to see anything happen to it," and so they went to Dublin Road but by the time they got there the dog was gone. I tell ya, have Red and White Irish Setter will travel. Having one meself, ye can't keep up!
On the outskirts of town a resident called the men in uniform as a deer had been killed by a motor. The occupant of the motor, one Mrs. Edna Thompson, a visiting Englishwoman, was quite shaken as you can well imagine. "I was driving along looking for an address when suddenly this red and white flash leapt out in front of the car and then suddenly, there was a deer and it ran into the motor killing itself instantly!" Well, it isn't hard to figure out what the "red and white flash" was. Anyway, the caller wanted to know if he could keep the deceased deer for it's meat. I tell ya it takes all kinds. He didn't care about the "red and white flash" and where it had gone, nor did he care a flip for the welfare of the visiting Englishwoman, he saw dinner, and a lot of it, and that's what he wanted. Well, there be nothing to do for it, they granted him permission to take the dead deer and this he did, dragging it to his garage. As for Mrs. Thompson, she was all right, a wee bit shaken, but the motor was totaled in the front end and she had to await the car rental place come to pick her up and to make arrangements for the deceased motor.
Meanwhile, Colin Nolan rang up the local men in uniform to have them come over and stop his ex-girlfriend from removing their son from his abode. Seems there was nothing to be done as the ex-girlfriend had shared custody of said child with Mr. Nolan. It was her turn to take sonny boy and well, too bad was about all that could be said to Mr. Colin Nolan.
Meanwhile, a call came in about a dog barking continually at a cat up a tree. When the constable's arrived, the cat was still up the tree and the dog was gone. The colour of the dog, "It was some white, big dog with red spots here and there." Yup we think we know WHAT dog it was.
Just a few doors down there was some disturbance going on and the constables moved to that residence. It seems the casualty van had arrived for a medical emergency, but turns out the person to whom the medical alert belonged, was having problems with the medical alarm system. It was incapacitated on the spot and all was well that ends well.
I like this one -- police assisted Miss Cynthia Cunningham to get her stalled car out of a driveway at a house she said she was housesitting. Four hours later the police got a phone call from the same residence from the owner who came home to find his house ransacked and things missing. Uh oh. LMAO Anyway, police are investigating, and they are on the lookout for one Miss Cynthia Cunningham, a very cunning lady. LOLOLOL.
Police got a call on a new American resident passing cars on the wrong side and driving on the wrong side of the road. I don't think I have to say anything more, I just got a good laugh out of that one.
There was a phone call to the men in uniform about a Red and White Irish Setter running down the middle of Bridge Street and the caller believed it was a dog owned by Cillian Duffy. So the constabulary was once again dispatched, but no dog did they see. About an hour later, the same caller coming out of Quay's Shopping Centre, saw the self same dog in the parking lot. Again, the constabulary arrived to no dog in sight.
Remember me limo story? Well, me Mam has one too, seems a limo was parked at the bottom of a rather palatial driveway. The lowly neighbour across the way got suspicious that the limo wasn't going up the driveway but was parked at the bottom, probably doing drug business. SO, she called the men in uniform who covertly came up on the parked limo to find the limo driver snoozing. Seems he had arrived two hours early for pickup and thought to take a nap until it was time to go pick up his customer.
Meanwhile, Mr. Cillian Duffy rang the local constabulary to inform them his female Red and White Irish Setter was missing. She had broken a window on the lower floor of the house and had taken off after the next door neighbours loose pet rabbit. I dread think what happened to that rabbit, these dogs (I, meself being an owner of one) know how fast they are. SIGH. Anyway, Mr. Duffy had come home for lunch to find the neighbour child crying up a storm on his doorstep, and the broken window in his kitchen, and no dog. I have a feeling Mr. Duffy will be making a trip to the local pet store very soon don't you?
A call was put to the local men in uniform of suspicious activity. A motor was seen pulling in and out of driveways. "I don't know they be casing the homes along me street," an upset Harry McBride said. Police went to investigate only to find the motor a road over doing the same thing. They located the vehicle which was a metre reader taking in the readings for the month. I tell ya!
You'll be happy to hear this bit of news, the constabulary caught and maintained custody of one Red and White Irish Setter named Mandy. They happened to see her running by them as they cruised down Merchants Quay. The dog made a sharp u-turn and came up to chase their police car and well, there you have it. They took the dog to their station, and found it did indeed belong to Cillian Duffy. Mr. Duffy came right quick to claim his dog and all be right with the dog world. Oi!
That's it from Northern Ireland.
