delhila (sorry about spelling) im guessin is the trap but still my guess
Delilah who wasn't his wife but a servant
A little known fact is that
she had trouble spelling her name and always used an i
But as Tom Jones told her she should use a Y Y Y delylah
It was a trap.
It used to be a con trick in the USA at one time, apparently.
A guy would go into a bar and show off his new haircut, saying, "I feel like Samson after Delilah cut off all his hair."
A very drunk bloke at the bar (the accomplice), would say ,"That's garbage, the Bible doesn't say that."
An argument would ensue, ending when the drunk man bets everyone who is now annoyed with his behaviour x amount of dollars that he's right.
They check the Bible, and discover it wasn't Delilah at all, but another servant whom she calls to do it.

Ah that's it got confused - a servant or something of hers not Delilah herself - but she started it!

dog walking is a good cover, its funny the looks i get picking them lol
It is - I usually go on my own unless I can persuade a neighbour to lend me their dog.
There are old folks' bungalows near where I go and an old dear there calls me the tortoise lady - I must remember to walk faster!

to be honest a guy with a big parka with the hood up walking around picking up weeds is not the strangest thing you see in these here parts!

...'tying' a shoe lace makes for good cover though ;)
