What a nice story, I love that Paddy occasionally got to go off on boating adventures before being returned to his home on the docks. Unfortunately this story is not one we are ever likely to see in this day and age.
These days, if Paddy the Wanderer started hanging around the waterfront he would quickly be deemed a risk to health and safety. The poor little bugger would be whisked off to the pound by the ranger before he had a chance to make any friends at all!
Buried words and Bushwa.
