Today, I had a cunning plan. Madame le Dog has a habit of barking loudly if I'm using anything noisy in the garden so I decided to shut her in the front room. Then put music on & venture out the front to do battle with some weeds. And decided Madame Le Cat woulkd probably prefer staying in the back yard, so just left her where she was.
Set up the music, shut dog in & went outside & got together pruning thingy (noisy one) plus secataurs & the old shearing shears for softer bits. Out I went, determined to get stuck in & make a difference to the small jungle out there...& just as I was passing the front window, there was Madame Le Dog, perched on her chair looking down her lengthy nose at the foolish human who'd tried to outwit her.
Bugger.
Nonetheless I carried on & was just making a tiny bit of progress when Madame Le Cat leapt over the fence from the back to supervise the foolish human who actually thought she could do weeding without being directed by her.
I managed approximately 10 minutes...i may have to invest in some chloroform for animals.

in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
