Anthony ponders career change

ANTHONY is thinking about a career change from '70s dancer to cowboy, but not if he listens to Craig.

"I would love to be a cowboy," said Anthony as Craig helped him with his cowboy outfit.

But Craig offered a dose of the reality of cowboy life.

"Cowboys don't shoot people. Cowboys are farmers. I don't think people realise that cowboys are farmers. They think they go round shooting people all day. But all a cowboy is is a farmer.

"That's why it's called a cowboy, because they're cattle farmers. Hence the name cow," he said.

Anthony was already off practising his lasso, but Makosi agreed with Craig, so he continued.

"The only reason they had guns is because of the Indians. They used to be at war with the Indians," Craig informed her.

Makosi didn't want to be a cowboy anyway. Or a cowgirl. She was more concerned with matters closer to home.

"I've got one nerve left and Kinga is sitting on it," she said, quite out of the blue.

Expect those guns to come in useful later...
