A man was shipwrecked on a desert island after a big storm. As he lies on the beach, a ewe and an alsatian are also washed ashore, so he does have some company. The climate of the island is warm and comfortable and there's food and water enough for them. After a few months the three of them get pretty pally and get into the habit of walking up into the hills to watch the sun go down every night. One particularly balmy night, everything is beautiful: In the distance they can hear the gentle sound of the sea lapping on the beach, the cooling evening breeze carries the sound of crickets chirping and everyone is happy. The man looks over at the sheep and the sheep looks back. They gaze into each other's eyes and the man begins to feel warm inside. The sheep continues to look back at him, so he reaches out and puts his arm around the animal. As soon as he does this,the alsatian begins to growl, and doesn't stop until the arm is removed. The three of them continue to watch the sunset each night, but the magic moment is past and there is no more funny business. The weeks and months go by and there is another tropical storm and a beautiful woman is washed up on the beach, more dead than alive. She is weak and half drowned, but with tender care she eventually returns to health. She gets along well with the man, the dog and the sheep and she is introduced to their nightly ritual of watching the sun go down over the sea listening to the sound of the sea lapping on the shore, the noise of the crickets and the scent of tropical plants and spices on the breeze. There is the most wonderful sunset and there is romance in the air and the man begins to feel warm inside and exciting feelings stir in his heart and elsewhere. He turns to the scantily clad and now sun-tanned woman and gently nuzzles her hair and his lips near her ear. Their arms brush as she moves closer to hear what he has to say as he whispers, "You wouldn't take the dog for a walk, would you ?"

Then there were the two guys washed up on nearby islands, one had a case of cans of beer and the other had a box of can openers....... the guy with the beer offered to exchange one can of beer, for one can opener!

Back to the sheep... There's a story in Bill Bryson's "Down Under" when he and a friend are travelling through northern Australia and find a place to stay the night. There's a single bed and a double bed. Bill offers his friend the double bed "You might get lucky!" The friend ripostes "You're joking! There's nothing round here except a few million sheep" to which Bill responds "Exactly. They can't ALL be fussy!" nell
