Guinea Pig
Inspiration:
Peter Stringfellow - he’s long-haired and randy
as well!
How
did it start:
By absolute chance! I was just a little pet
on the farm, and I never got into any mischief.
Then, I decided to squeeze under the fence and
break in to my girlfriends’ quarters and after
that night with my 24 girlfriends, I ended up
with 43 children. Suddenly a media star!!!
And
then:
My owner told a journalist and it was all over
the news. BBC Wales came to film me, which was
great because, within half an hour, most of
my guinea pig kids had been found homes.
Big
break:
Breaking out of my hut, making my move to the
girls’ shed... and that was it!
Career
highlight:
I was put in a box and taken to London to Stringfellows
to meet the owner, Peter Stringfellow. Everyone
said I was like him, but I think Peter knew
who was the better guy! I was allowed to sit
with a pretty girl and on Peter’s throne, and
Peter tickled my ears! I couldn’t believe it
when he made me an honorary member of his club.
Recently, Peter’s had two of my sons, 'Stringy'
and 'O’fellow' for his grandkids!
Tips
from the top:
Be careful what you say to the press, and don’t
get caught! I’ve passed this advice on to son
of Sooty, 'Stringy' - named in honour of Peter.
