Stock Photo - 1972 - Alli' is a Four Foot Softie: Sidney the pet 'Alligator' is a growing 'Lad' at the age of four. Sidney has grown to the almighty size of four feet in length and is still growing, presenting Mrs. 'Girlie' (nickname) Germo, who comes from Whitstable, in Kent, with quite a few problems. Recently, a New 'Act passed means that all Dangerous Animals, kept as pets, must have a Licence. Although not dangerous, Sidney can be sometimes a little playful and not realize his own strength, like the time Mrs. Germo tired to coax Sidney out from some bushes with a golf-club; and he bit the end off; Should Sidney ever get too big to handle, Mrs. Germo has stated that she would have to put him in a zoo, for it would be best for his own sake as well as Mr. Gremo's golf 'Handicap.' Picture Shows:Sidney may be an Alligator but he is no exception to the rules when it comes to wanting attention from Mrs. Gremo or the children.
