“The geography of the alleged assault raises equally serious doubts….There are two sets of toilets in the VIP area, both of which are permanently manned by attendants.

“One is a group of six cubicles, which has a long queue of punters waiting in line on a Saturday night. The other gents is an open plan toilet with urinals which again, at this time of night, would never be empty. For an assault to have happened in either without anyone noticing is simply impossible.

“…Therefore, Louis would have had to not only assault a complete stranger in a bathroom – ridiculous enough in itself – but he’d also have had to immediately buy the silence of witnesses and attendants and stop them from sharing the story…”

Holmes drifted off, lost in a cloud of his own keenly aroused thoughts. Watson could see this was a two-pipe problem and left the room.

Sad tale:

Weakened by malnourishment after being abandoned as a pup by a Nebraskan family fleeing their foreclosed home, Naki’o stepped into an icy puddle in the basement and got his paws stuck in freezing water. Despite being rescued, he eventually lost the lower parts of all four limbs to frostbite.

Happy ending:

Since then, his new owner has had him fitted with four prosthetic paws in a pioneering procedure by Martin Kaufmann of  Orthopets, a company specializing in orthotic and prosthetic devices for animals.
