Seaworthy Sam: My South African friend Sophie... a lovely story to make you smile!

Yesterday was a pretty stressful day here at cruise.co.uk. The phones were busy and there wasn’t that many people in the office due to the snow conditions outside. So to say I was busy is an understatement.

Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring, goes the phone. Good Morning cruise.co.uk, Samantha speaking, how can I help you? Oh hello there Samantha, said the kind British voice down the phone. I am looking at a cruise on the internet but I am all the way over in South Africa and I need to check I can book it correctly. No problem I said! Anyway the conversation went on and this man proceeded to tell me that he had read my blog and seen that I love animals. I said Oh I do. He said well you will love my little friend Sophie!

My blog today friend’s is a story that put a little smile on my face during my stressful day. My friendly South African friend, Mr Taylor sent me an email with these pictures on it. He proceeded to tell me that he had rescued a dog that was very sick indeed. The vet had mentioned that she was a lovely dog and just needed a second chance in life. Mr Taylor went on to take this lonely dog in and now she is healthy and bouncing around the house with a lovely personality! Ahhhhrgh! Look at these pictures! I think it is safe to say that Mr Taylor is a hero and what a lovely looking dog she is! I am glad that Sophie had a happy ending and all the bad days are behind her!

And thank you Mr Taylor and Sophie for making me smile! J
