• I live in a neighborhood  called El Palo, this area is located in Málaga and it has changed very much over the years. In the past this area was smaller than it is now, it was a rural area than don't have aparment blocks or buildings, no motorways because the people here don't have cars or others transports the form of transport most used was by horse.
•  Most of the people used to work  like fishermen, because El Palo is next to the beach.

The Choking Doberman

One night, a couple who had been out for many drinks came home to find their dog choking in the living room. The man panicked, but the woman decided to call her old friend to drop the dog off at the vet.

After dropping off the dog, she decides to go home and get her husband into bed. It takes her a while to do this, and in the meantime, the phone rings. The vet screams hysterically that they need to get out of the house immediately. So without any clue as to what’s going on, the couple leave the house as quickly as possible.
As they come down the stairs, several policemen run up to meet them. When the woman ask what the problem is, a policeman tells her that the dog was choking on a man’s finger. A burglar must still be present in their home. Soon the former owner of the finger is found unconscious in the bedroom.
