Dragon from Shrek |
Oops!
There
are some animals where it's hard to tell their sex when they're just
born. Cats are one type of animal that suffers this. Turns out that
dragons also suffer from this little problem and despite an expert
assuring me that I had a male, Mason is in fact a girl dragon.We only realised because Mason had a play date with his, I mean, her brother today. The difference became obvious when we saw them side by side, for Wilfred (the brother) is much stouter in his build and his skin is rough, while Mason has a rather graceful build and though scaly, her skin is quite soft and smooth.
Well,
we are a female heavy household to begin with, so what's one more? I
do feel sorry for Andy-Dog sometimes though, being the only man.
Mason, guarding my North & South DVD |
However,
it does explain one interesting factoid, Mason's interest with North
and South. You see, I thought that she fancied Margaret (though she
wasn't that interested in her scenes) sympathised with the working
classes, or perhaps empathised with John's struggle.
But
nope, it turns out that I have fire breathing competition for Richard
Armitage affections.
My only hope! |
*Sigh*
My
only hope now, is to get a ridiculously cute puppy before meeting
him.
Of
course, given that neither Mason or me are likely to meet him, that might
be a little drastic.
Still,
it's nice to have company to watch the mini-series with, when I can
wrestle the DVD box away from her, that is. She's weirdly possessive of
it.
I
haven't daren't show her the Vicar of Dibley yet, I'm afraid her
ovaries might burst!
Mason and her brother, Wilfred. |
