Summary
I loved the New Zealand comic strip Footrot Flats (1976-1994) when I was younger. For those who don't know it, here's the fan site: https://www.footrotflats.com/
One of the running gags in the story was how absurdly jealous the main character, "The Dog" (a border collie) was of his master's (Wallace Footrot, a farmer) main love interest, an (alleged) femme fatale known as Darlene "Cheeky" Hobson. I wasn't happy with how this was resolved in the original strip, and it made me wonder....what type of situation would force these two rivals for Wal's love to finally bury the hatchet?
And then the answer came to me from the phrase "the Shaky Isles".....
