The crazy world of Bonzo

[Bonzo]

Just thought I would share this recent incident with you all.

Yet another event in the bizarre world of Bonzo land

It was a nice mild evening a couple of nights back.
We decided to take our little Yorkie out for a nice walk.

Got as far as the cow field midway down our lane & being as the cows have been relocated to another field, we decided to take a short cut across the field so as we could get to the public foot path.

So far so good.

When we got across to the other side of the field we came to the electric fence that keeps the cows away from the public footpath.

Me being the perfect gent, put the sleeve of my padded shirt under the electric fence wire so as my good lady wife could walk under the wire without doing a limbo dance.

Once my good lady was the other side of the fence she promptly grabbed hold of the wire with her bare hands.

Well, I just ducked under the wire & looked at her.

She said, “ What are you looking at me like that for “

I said, “ That was mighty brave of you, just assuming that the fence isn’t switched on “

She said, “ Well, I can’t feel anything so it must be turned off “

I grabbed hold of the wire & got an almighty belt , let go a bit sharply that’s for sure.

We had both forgotten about the fact that my wife has MS & the feeling in her hands comes & goes.

We Had a good old laugh about it ( As we do )

Walking home she said, “ You know, I thought that wire felt a bit funny “

Never dull here, that’s for sure.

A lot of it may have been down to her rubber poop shoes !!

Why are they called poop shoes ??

Cos if she wears them with no socks on, her feet make fart noises as she walks

I know Rob

Just so happens that I am quite sensitive to electric, had quite a few nips from car wiring .... Strange but true

Besides, I am a great big girls blouse when it comes to electric fences

I got belted by 80ish AC volts at work due to some incompetent idiot wiring a piece of furniture incorrectly (I got a shock of a plug I was holding, the end that usually goes into the mains!). The person they sent from the manufacturer was quite off hand until I asked if it was a competent electrician who had built the units and mentioned that it was myself that was the subject of the potentially lethal blunder. He then said he stood by the product, I almost came back with the quip that I too would stand by it but there's no ....... way I would touch it!

The totally redesigned unit showed what they should have done in the first place.

We had a bit of a canoodle on a romantic walk a while back

Just for old times sake and all that

She said, " I don't remember you having that much energy 25 years ago "

I said, " That flipping electric fence wasn't there 25 years ago "

Ps

Not a true story that one, well past that sort of thing
