Mops by blackpuddinonnabike, on Flickr
Today I learned that in Munich pugs are often transported in baskets on the front of bikes; that this chap (who I think is West Indian originally) lived in Munich for 7 years where he picked up this pug; that he himself transports the pug in a basket on the front of his bike; and that in Germany pugs are called 'mops'.
It was a lovely 5 minutes spent chatting in the sunshine. I've seen the chap on his bike before, so hoping to catch a snap of him with the pug in the basket at some point, and find out some more of what promises to be an interesting life story.
