I have no idea how long he was a stray. Alf would be an arse at this time of year. He would pull everything blackberry off every bramble, eat every sweet chestnut, acorn, fallen apple, piece of roadkill, chase every cat and fox in the garden and grab any hedgehog he could snaffle. He was pretty awful with big dogs some of the time and great the rest of the time. But in the house he was quiet and obedient but hated thunder and fireworks. I built a system whereby he could run in front of my bike and he absolutely loved that. He'd have done that to his last breath.
