Two porcelain dogs, named Cecil and Cederick, had been regulars on the shelf of the Sweet Afton Bar in Belfast. After one weekend in 2016, the bar’s owner noticed that Cederick was missing. But a short time later, he discovered the porcelain pet on his doorstep with a note and a crème egg.
The note read: “I was in your establishment over the weekend having a fabulous time, soaking up the atmosphere, admiring the décor and enjoying the gratuitous amount of shots I clearly shouldn’t have been drinking when my eyes were instantly attracted to your lovely white porcelain dogs on the shelving at the back of the bar.
In fact, I was so taken with said dogs and concerned for their welfare with being in a drinking establishment where they maybe weren’t getting the attention they required, when I convinced myself it would be a good idea to adopt one of the them.
You must believe that as an animal lover my intentions were always pure. ‘However, having reflected on my actions over the weekend I wondered if you might be missing him/her so I have decided to return it to its rightful owners.
Please accept my sincere apology for any upset or offence caused by my drunken antics and I promise next time I’ll behave and not drink copious amounts of alcohol. I have also provided the other dog with a Créme Egg in case it has been pining for its friend over the weekend.”
