Mrs. Hambrook of the Old Manor Hotel, Bracknell, Berks, offered to look after a week old

Mrs. Hambrook of the Old Manor Hotel, Bracknell, Berks, offered to look after a week old piglet of a large litter. She did not bargain for the pig taking possession of the hotel. Fernando, the name given to the piglet, decided the luxuries of a hotel were well worth cultivating and so he meandered around the hotel looking for tasty morsels. Customers soon took Fernando for granted and although the piglet never took to drink he discovered drinkers were good companions, and whenever there was a party Fernando was there. Soon Fernando became too much of a handful for Mrs. Hambrook and so, having saved his life, he has to go back to his brothers and sisters to be fattened up for the bacon factory. The staff of the hotel are very sad, but they all realise that a growing Fernando will be too big to keep as a pet any longer. Fernando with Mrs. Hambrook (left) causes quite a lot of amusement to the customers in the lounge at the old Manor Hotel. February 1949 P000666
