and I can´t stop laughing.

I took the mutts out just now for their pre dinner walk ..it´s the walk they do the shortest route and get back home ASAP. So I was walking them across the waste ground when 2 brits walked passed. 1 saying something like cor cop that etc ( I have a rather large chest and it was in a low top) ..I said nothing but carried on walking ..Mini crossed their path and the chappie said to her "hello sweetie now you aren´t going to take a chunk out of my ankle are you" so I said No she is just heading home.
RED faces with Oh you are english sorry as they scuttled orf. Well I am giggling to myself (as you do)
Turned the next corner and there wandering down the road is some Spanish woman with either a hard towel or a rug with something inside it ranting away to herself. She beamed into me crossed the road and started to attack me with rug/ towel. So I am trying dodge this and get both dogs away ..little ún decided it was a good time to do her run in and out attack, whilst wussy babe wanted to climb up Mum or hide behind.
Whilst I am trying decide whether to let the Mutts go and just sock the woman, or try to get by with both dogs, the Brit gents turned back to rescue me. (still red faced). They just moved the woman on so I could get both dogs passed ..she carried on walking talking away to herself ....The gents rushed off (after checking I was okay) and somebody from a house came out and said something like she is always like that do I want to call the guardia. No I didn´t but I missed a lot of what he said.

It was actually quite funny at the time but I do have to wonder how I would have reacted if it had been dark and there was nobody about. Although I don´t think she intended to actually hurt me (not sure about that towel /carpet mind ).

I will keep a sharp eye out for her in future and walk the other way if I see her.

Oh dear Uzzi, never a dull moment eh? Maybe you need to take a walking stick or something out with you in case you run up against rug woman again and no one is about. Perhaps she didn't approve of your lowcut top lol

I did smile tho, you reminded me of when I was young and silly, my friend and I decided to pretend we were foreign and spoke sort of mumbo jumbo mixed with what German we remembered from school. It was so interesting to see how hard the fellas tried to chat us up and the comments they made when they thought we didn't understand lol

Take care
