I really shouldn't laugh


Daily dog walking duties.

7.30 am Me.

10.30 am Lady M.

1.45 pm Me.

4. 30 pm Lady M.

As in most of the UK, we've been having a spot of intermittent light rain recently. Nothing drastic but you never really know when it's going to start, or finish.

For some bizarre reason (maybe the gods are smiling at me), when I take Billy out it tends to be dry, then as soon as Lady M takes him, it pours.

This hasn't happened just once, it happens quite regularly.

I'm just waiting for her to say "From now on I'll do 7.30 am and 1.45 pm, and you can do the wetter 10.30 am and 4.30 pm.

I shall, of course, refuse. I have this agreement with the weather gods, that if they don't piss on me, I won't piss on them. I'm sticking to my part of the bargain.

Pour { haha ! } Lady M !!! I hope you make her a warming cuppa when she gets back. Whenever I think about the British weather, it is often clear in the mornings and evenings whatever the season...... did you factor that in wneh the arrangements were made ? XXXX

This became the norm simply because I get-up earlier than her.

Lady M has been blessed by the rain God..... Or Goddess. Lucky lady.

Cro Magnon said...

Yes, she's more of a weather person than I am.

You never want to upset the weather gods.

I think my husband was part duck. He loved a walk in the rain.

Cro Magnon said...

It's supposed to rain here tomorrow, but my fingers are crossed for when!

Cro Magnon said...

Too true!

We have a wonderful covered outdoor terrace in France where it is perfect for storm watching; as long as I keep dry.

Poor Lady M - I hope she has a decent raincoat and wellies!
If it's absolutely pouring down my dog will refuse to go walkies, and I won't persuade her otherwise!

Rick only gets two walks a day. Now he's read this and is demanding four!

Susan said...

You will have to gift Lady M with some new rain gear. She needs dry gear for each walk. Also a nice cup of tea or coffee should be ready upon her return home.

I do love watching a good storm, lightening and all.

Great photo of rain flying off Billy.

Cro Magnon said...

She always goes out looking as if she's heading for a Rainy North Pole.

Cro Magnon said...

Billy only gets four because he's really walking us! We wouldn't get out much otherwise.

Cro Magnon said...

Well, erm, yes!

Dogs are mostly self-healing, self-cleaning, and self-drying.
