Shenanigans......
Yes well inspite of yesterday being woman's day, here in Johannesburg it was cancelled due to a lack of interest....
Not because it was womans day, but rather in-spite of it
See I had this marvellos mental picture of taking all three dogs up to the wild fields and letting them run to their hearts content, while I grilled a nice chunk of beef over a 1 man braai <barbecue> with a nice bean salad to go wih it.....
Ha!
The mercuary prummeted to a freezing 10 deg C <50 F> and the wind howled, rattling the shingles.....
So me.... I fired up the electric blanket, threw on a few more bed covers, left it up to my son to brave the elements and fight his way off to the local super-store and get me essential supplies as crisps / dip / coctail sausages / cheeze / cheese corn bites / gallons of coldrink and a whole mess of similar, and hunkered down witth two good books, Alone in the wilderness & Master mariner, and spent the day hunkered down on the bed with the dogs.....
But this is a doberman thread..... So waz all of that got to do with Dobies?
Yes, but I have to paint the backdrop to what happens next....
Well, see that gallons of coldrink..... Eventually that started to have it's effect and I was forced out of this warm cozy nest to go and have.......... Well......
I suppose it's polite enough to say........ A pee.....
So there's me standing over the loo.... My 60 year old stream doing it's best to impress me, and Grumble's head suddenly appears between my legs.....
Yip ! She wanted to see what this was al-l-l-l-l-l-l about......
One small problem......
Before I could turn off this "impressive stream" I had going, she had shoveled her head just a wee bit too far.....
And for her enthusiasm, , got "streamed"......
Woman's day
What can I say? It's a woman < my daughter in law> that cooks my meals, does my washing & iorning, cleans my dishes.... Brought my grandkids into this world and tends to their needs....
I absolutely take my hat off to her.... Nothing but <RESPECT> and that goes to each and every one of you ladies.
Unfortunately, I live in a country that is extriemely masogonistic, and for the most part, culturally, woman are seen by men as possessions, having paid "labola" <dowery> percieve them to be nothing more than possessions to do their every bidding....
I doubt we will see much in the way of change, for a very very long time to come...
To all the ladies here <on the forum> and everywhere else..... What else can I say but THANK YOU....

G will have earned it 
that's a Dobie thing 
Just what they do and some worse than others. I think you might be lucky with Grumbles because by the time Jazz was this age my hands and arms were looking a bit like I'd wrestled a mad cat.
Bright side is that there'll be one hell of a reunion at the airport when I pick her up!
