Beware of the Dog is written by Roald Dahl. At first we are introduced to a british pilot, that has lost a leg, and is about to slip into an unconscious state. He realizes that he must eject himself from the plane. He later wakes up from ejecting from the plane in a hospital. Later in the day he hears a mysterious noise. He hears the sound of an engine from a german plane, and thinks to himself that the pilot must be very daring to be this close to enemy territory. A nurse appears to him and gives him a bath. While she was giving him a bath she states that the water is very hard in Brighton. Almost instantly, the pilot remembers that the water was so soft in Brighton that you had to take two baths to wash the soap off because he grew up there.
