I’d love to be a spy! I’d sit in a cafe reading a newspaper with a hole in it to peep through.
I could disguise myself with a false beard and moustache and carry a big magnifying glass. I could even dress as a woman!
I’d pretend to be a window cleaner and peer into people’s rooms, make phone calls with a handkerchief over the mouthpiece and put on funny accents. I’d have a camera in my collar and a recorder in my hat.
One day I’d be a delivery driver, another a repairman.
But it’ll never happen. Fun to imagine though!
Thanks to Rochelle for hosting and providing the photo.

A delightful dream! And no need for disguise–my friends tell me that a senior can go everywhere incognito ’cause no one ever really sees you.
But when I see your clever little frog adaptations, I really think you should be a cartoonist. They don’t get captured and tortured and dumped in a shark-infested bay like spies do.

When I was visiting Vienna several years ago I got to speaking with another American tourist. Her husband had been in the US diplomatic corps in some South American country and she was recruited to ‘snoop’ when she was with the wives of the South American diplomats. You know, kids playing on the swings and moms chit chatting. Sounds like your kinda dame, lol.
