Caged like a Meerkat

When the sun comes out I can go out to my front garden and sit on my bench with the low fence keeping me a good 2 meters away from the road and pavement.

It's a place like in a zoo where they keep meerkats in low caged areas so people can see them in there but the animals can't climb out. I know I couldn't climb out over that fence either.

There seems to be an increase in dog walkers and other people going by, they like to speak or stop for a chat, where I sit up and stare around like the meerkats do in the wild.

I've thought of a couple of signs to put up in my cage, "Don't feed the Old Lady", that's because I look like a very overweight Meerkat. Secondly "Please supply Toilet Rolls, urgently required, Unused please".

The second sign is no longer required as I've saved lots of newspapers now. Mind you it is a nice leisurely place to sit in the sunshine and watch the world go by..
As long as you don't start pacing the inside of your garden, I think you'll be okay.

I think that if you starch a length of rope, put a dog collar at one end, you to could go out and walk your "pet" so as to get so exercise. Just a thought.

@byrdlip That's a good idea as long as my imaginary dog doesn't pull to much.

Hope you’re moving your neck in the right way Heather! Up straight with short jerky movements! Honestly you do make us laugh! You’ll have people lining up for the show outside your cage!

@happypat I did 5 years of stand up comedy just feeding off the audience, I just love giving people a smile now and then.

@happypat Not joking this time, my biggest audience was a West Country Ladies Rotary Club Annual Dinner where there were 250 ladies.

@happypat I should have been in to comedy at an early age, I never stop whether I'm in the supermarket, hairdressers and even hospital appointments, people end up laughing as I see funny things in everything. It keeps me happy.
