THE FAMILY
This is my wife. Elsabé. Elizabeth for the english speaking tribe. She is a teacher at Dunnottar Primary. Teaching grade 2 takes up her whole day. I kinda like her!
Elsabé became a HAM in 1998 and scored 20% average more than me in the exam.. I am stll dealing with that as I am into electronics. Her callsign is ZR6MME. The MME stands for " Mooi Meisie Elsabé".
Next up are the dogs. My two little girls. They are sisters. 1 year apart and they have the same mom and dad. The oldest was born on 14 February 1997 and her name is "Ounooi", which means, when translated, "Old Girl". She rather has the temper of an old spinster if you ask me. But she will never bite.... just moans a lot. I mean a real lot.
Moiselle is the name of my youngest. It comes from the French word Mademoiselle. I think it means someting like " Little One" Anayway, that is how I think of her. She is very senstive to harsh words and if you even look at her in a hard way she is under the bed. Anyway. I think she is the smart one and I am thinking of sending her to Harvard when she wants to go and study. HiHi. She was born on the 18 th of March 1998.
Don't look at me that way!
Moiselle is very fond of sleeping. Under blankets preferebly. That may be why her skin is so soft.
Then there is my Oldest baby. "Sokkies" is her name and she is 10 years old I think. I got her or rather she got me in my second year at College.
We were rehearsing for our tour in PootNote, a revue group of the college, and this cat just joined us one day. Everybody was very fond of the cat immediatly and she stayed the whole week. After everyone had left on the last day, here was "Sokkies" , so, I took her home and she stayed with my parents until I bought a house and she's been living with me for nearly 4 years now, eventhough I had her the last 9 years.
She is quite the HUNTER. Here she caught up with a tennis ball. Hi.
By the way.... "Sokkies" means SOCKS, as you can see.
Then there is the "Pippies" or Bantams. These silkies found their way into our garden to root out all the snails. They have done so well that very few other things are left. Recently they multiplied from 2 to 8. Six chicks were born, 3 went to my dad and the other three are still rooting up everything in site. I you want a bantam. just contact us and you can have one. They are very tame.
Well. That is the family album for now anyway.
