…there are a couple of very deserving causes that caught Munguin’s eye and persuaded him to open his wallet (we found the key in the vaults of Munguin Towers), allowing a multitude of moths to escape.
The first is from Munguin reader and blogger, The Rambling Junketeers, who, currently living in Mexico, has been touched by the plight of the hundreds of stray dogs that are left to starve on the streets in that country.
He’s fundraising for a kennel that he volunteers with. His story is heartwarming and tear-jerking at the same time. It’s worth a read if you’re an animal lover.
So, if you’re a dog person, and flush with cash, you might like to help him out. Money goes a good deal further in Mexico so even a little would make a difference.
The second cause is an old favourite of this site and of Munguin’s, so it will need no other introduction than… Mark Frankland. We all know what Mark does, and Munguin and I have the deepest respect for him. Homebase needs funds for the winter and this is important work, given the terrible hardships imposed on people by this heartless Westminster government of incompetents.
In addition to the Just Giving page, Mark has written another novel, always a seriously good and exciting read, and is selling it on Amazon Kindle. If you fancy buying it for your Kindle you can do so here. All the money goes to the fund. I think you’ll like the plot.
If you don’t have a Kindle you can read the book on his blog (see sidebar) or here, and make a contribution (or not) on the Just Giving page.
OK, that’s Munguin’s begging bowl going back in the cupboard until the next time. At least, to the little fella’s credit, he never asks anything for himself. (Of course, neither does Rupert!)
MUNGUIN'S NEW REPUBLIC 
Once again, many many thanks to all at Munguin Towers for the mention. And just to confirm, like all good Mexican’s these dogs love revolutionaries and are fully supportive of Scottish self-determination and independence. My ramblings have made sure of it 😉 With your help and generosity, one day, one of these poor dogs will make it onto Soppy Sunday. I’ll have to brush up on my photography though. 😃

Yay, los perros mexicanos están con nosotros.
We’re glad to give you a shout out. Your story touched us. I just hope we have helped a bit.
I’d love to put some of your pics on Soppy Sunday… Wee Hamish is a prime candidate!
Good luck with the appeal. Keep us informed how it goes.

Given today’s news from Mexico, hope Roaming and the dugs are ok. Are you far enough away from the Earthquake zone?
