Paws up for the Dog Show !

So yes another weekend has arrived and gone ...*sigh*
i should probably change the name of this blog to 'weekenders blog' or something considering the increasing reportage of my weekends and consequent decrease of design and intellectual art talk ... yikes what a scary thought !

Renewd my gym membership again last week but have been seriously thinking about getting into some kinda game/sports - i feel like such a knuclehead whensoever i work out with them huge biceped and v-shaped super model DOHH types. Tennis ? Squash?? maybe a better option ...

Anyway.. let me get to the point about this very eventful weekend of mine
( sounds of drumroll in the background )

Took Spooky down to her first ever dog show !!! and wasn't that a delightful experience!?
It was... and it was heaps fun watching soo many dogs at the same place.

Entered spooky into the toyclass category and i was a teeny-weeny bit concerned that i might have to drag her across the green in front of a few hundred spectators - how embarrasing would that have been? ( exactly the same thought that must have occured to my sister - which is why she backed off from being 'the handler' - the cheeky brat ;P )

But all went well and spooky behaved, other than the occasional nagging to be picked up in my arms - she was quite charming, amiable and well poised in front of the judge. ...and ... she found a potential love interest tooo !!! Sheikh Mohammeds daughters 'Bichon Frieze' named Sushi. They looked quite lovely together.

Curiously, I asked 'Sushi's' handler as to how many other dogs Sheikh Mohammed owned and get this ?? he said 'around 73 dogs, 1 snake, 2 cheetahs and a lion !!!!!!! wow ! WOW ! WWOOOOWW !!! ( a little dubai gk for those who are not familiar with who Sheikh Mohammed is - He is the Crown Prince of Dubai and the revolutionary man responsible for shaping dubai into what it is today and what it is to become in the near future )

Poor thing was awfully tired after all thar excitement and dint want to walk any further so dad had to carry her.

Met up with Sulagna in the evening at the Indian Sports club for her parents 25th - it was quite lovely seeing her after so long.

Nostalgia is always a happy word, is it not ?
