But you still go ahead and do it. Well I seem to do it more and more these days despite the rather resigned inner voice asking `are you wise?' I seem to follow the advice of the other one the one that asks in a rather seductive whisper, `just do it who will know'. Well in this instance most of the neighborhood by now will be thinking I've finally lost it as I was spotted! Picture a narrow country lane bordered by a deep free running drainage ditch. Luscious undergrowth gently dripping into said ditch after yet another heavy shower. My dog and I are strolling home up said lane when suddenly he, the dog leaps into the ditch with that` gimmi the ball' look an his face. I know its daft to do it, why? Because this ball I'm caring doesn't float. `Are you wise' is dismissed and I chuck in the ball. It sinks, dog looks mortified cause he can't find it so I'm off with the shoes and socks and down there in the ditch with him ferreting about in the mud when posh new people from up the road pass in posh new car. I duck behind the brambles but too late I'm spotted and anyway my shoes are in full view on the bank. I half wave in a nonchalant manner. Its not acknowledged. if asked what I was doing what should I have said do you think?

Blame the dog - he won't be able to answer back!

....... if asked what I was doing what should I have said do you think? Panning for gold ...... I'd give it no more than a week before the posh new neighbours were indulging in similar furtive activities, so remember to take a camera when you're walking the dog. *grins*

But that's not believable ! Tell 'em your dog is a trained truffle hound and you make £ thousands a year by selling truffles to Jamie Oliver et-al. Same result as Fi's plan but more believable.

But that's not believable ! In various bits of Scotland it most certainly is. *taps side of nose in a knowing sort of way*
