this sure is common too...
we lock ourselves

and lock or shut and bolt the door
everytime we go out

the day or time we forget
to do it
we have visitors
happily on the fridge
sitting on the sofa
or eating from the hotplate

we do have a jutting jamun tree
and they take those yummies
to eat them tree top
and when they finish
we get to clean
their stinky droppings
and food strewn all over....

but yes they can have a way
with clothes
how they love the sarees and blouse
if only there were clicks click click
we will sure be getting those
contest firsts...!

and did they sing
jaipur ki choli
mangwa de re ....

Good post Kamalji!

I love watching monkeys. They are upto some mischief every minute. They do'nt seem to stay still at all. I always wished that if I would ever have a pet, then it has to be a monkey. Guess, that way I will have no pesky relative camping in my house!

While growing up in a small town South Indian town, I would accompany my mother to the vegetable market every week. The market was always crowded with vendors, buyers, cows, dogs and a large army of monkeys. It was on a narrow street with telephone and electricity wires dangling around. The mother monkeys would swing like acrobats from one wire to another with their young ones clinging to them. There were some hang out zones for these simians too. They would crowd around those zones and be engrossed in picking ticks. The plantain sellers always had a crowd of monkeys hovering around them. Many a time these monkeys have snatched a bunch of plantain that my mother would have bought after haggling with the vendor over the price.
As Sathya said, first the elephants, then the monkeys what next? Snakes??
