of names and games

" ! " ! " ! "

the sound that means something to her is 'indi'. she was impulsively named after a huge big lazy greyhound who rio shared the house with last summer. let me find her picture of the original indy.



here she is, busy with her favourite hobby. for the rest she spends about 99% of her time on a sofa, like any decent greyhound would. - quite unlike our little mad indi, but surely more relaxing. in the meantime ms busy acquired the following nick names:

• meiga - witch in gallego
• lepaco - bat in finnish
• vermicelle
• nudeli - little pasta in swiss german
• tussi - hard to explain, something like a fashion chick
• propellerli - because her tail is like a propeller
• bäftzgi - swiss for barker
• and probably more that i cannot remember now.
  

anyway, she is a very busy dog except when she sleeps. you could then fell a tree right next to her and she would not move an inch.

notice that tongue flick there . . . .

i do sometimes tie her up to give her a break from fly chasing. there are always some insects whirling around and it is her job to chase them down.

finally a second to take a portrait. it is hard to get good still pictures of her.
