My friend told me his mates girlfriends brother....
We've all heard them. Those stories you wish were true, but nobodies ever met the person it happened to. The first person you tell about it has heard it before. What is the best elaborate story you have ever heard that probably was not true, but nobody will ever admit they made it up?
I heard one recently and the scenario is as follows:
A female friend of a friend was asked by her neighbour to look after their dog whilst they were on holiday. She does so, but after a couple of days the dog dies. The dog was old, and it was not a great shock to the family. The girl calls up the family, passes on the information and asks what she should do with the now deceased canine. The family ask her if you could take it to the vets, where it can be properly disposed of. The girl, not wanting to upset the grieving family agrees.
The dog is largish in size, and the only thing she can find to transport the dog is a suitcase. The vets is not far, and the girl sets out on her voyage hauling the dog behind her. On her travels, a good samaritan sees her struggling and offers his help, which our tired protagonist hastily accepts, as she is weary from her journey. The stranger begins to make chit chat and starts to ask the girl about the mysterious burden they now share. Not wanting to alarm, the girl explains she is returning to university and the suitcase contains all her worldly goods. At which point the man shoves her over and makes off with the suitcase, never to be seen again.
