As we were strolling along the pier Wilson spotted something happening down on the beach — donkey rides!
Some time ago I was under a lot of pressure to allow him to have a pet donkey (he finished up with Diesel, his goldfish) so they're clearly an animal he feels a great affinity for.
Unfortunately, though, the lady in charge was collecting them together and and it looked as though the rides had ended for the day.
W called down to her, asking whether the rides were finished and she called back, 'Yes! The donks have had enough for now, but they'll be back again tomorrow!'
I had planned to go somewhere else the following day, but I promised W he could definitely have a donkey ride next time we were at the beach.
He was disappointed, but he took it on the chin… and I expect he'll find a way for me to make it up to him!
