Kamali/nero

Kamali (17:10): Hey dad, I have a bit of a random question

I’m writing about grandpa’s films

If I’m remembering correctly, you’ve had more than one dog called ‘Nero’, right?

Papa (17:11): Umm…. Yes!

The dog in St. Eustatius was called Nero and the Irish setter in Dordrecht as well

Kamali (17:20): Aha

Which one was called “Edwin’s Desire” haha

Or was that another dog?

Papa (17:21): The last one

Nero Caesar Edwin’s desire

He was registered on his family tree like that

It was a purebred Irish setter

Kamali (17:23): Haha

What a name

Papa (17:24): Nickname: Nero

☺

Kamali (17:30): And he was named “Edwin’s Desire” because Edwin really wanted a dog, right?

Papa (17:33): Yes, he started writing notes that said he wanted a dog very much, and put them everywhere in the house: by the phone, in the kitchen drawers, in the bath tub, toilet, coat rack, floor mat, stairs, etc. etc.

It drove grandma and grandpa crazy

So they bought a dog for him
