Not a joke, but an amazing true story

Enright

Joe was travelling on the high speed HSS catamaran ferry from Larne
in Northern Ireland to Stranraer in Scotland.
He was travelling on to Manchester to spend a week with some
friends.With him was Bailey, his six year old Jack Russell dog.

About half an hour into the journey, Joe went out onto the small
deck area at the rear of the ferry for a smoke. For those of you who don't
know,the HSS is not like a conventional ferry - there's only this one area
where the passengers can actually get access to the open air.

Anyway, Joe is standing, having a smoke with Bailey at his side.
Bailey then spots a seagull flying very close to the rail and,
before my friend realises what is happening, Bailey barks and takes a run at the seagull,
disappearing over the rail and plunging into the Irish Sea. Joe runs for help but, bearing in mind this is a high speed vessel,
already half-way to Scotland and it is, after all, 'only' a dog that has fallen in, it is perhaps
not surprising that the captain refuses to turn around to look for the
dog.

Joe arrived in Stranraer distraught but travels on to Manchester as
planned. He spends a rather downbeat few days with his friends, before
travelling back to Northern Ireland, via the same crossing, a week later.

He drove to his home in Belfast, parked the car and walked to his front door. You'll never guess what was sitting on his doorstep -

Yep, seven pints of milk.

Not amazing, still a true story. Was a while since they delivered though.
