    The fox and its prey

    so, this morning I caught sight of our local Mr Fox jumping over the fence at the bottom of our garden. Later, went down to put some washing on the line and spotted ‘something’ black and furry lying under the washing line. I was too scared to investigate further, was sure it was a poor cat who had been hunted and caught ☹️ So decided to wait until our SIL called in later with my click and collect from Tesco.

    So I found two plastic bags, some of P’s thick gardening gloves and waited. He arrived, listened to my tale of woe and bravely went to investigate.

    ............

    And he found ........ one of Dexter’s toys, a black creature of some sort, that he had left out in the garden..............was my face red 🥴

    Awww, I'm so relieved for you- and the 'cat'!

    I'm not laughing (much)
    I can so imagine this scenario here!

          Enfys - I'm glad it wasn't a cat, and Dexter hasn't lost his furry friend. I hope Mr Fox found his breakfast ready prepared in a bin somewhere!

          Did your SIL laugh?

              Enfys - you might have had a bit of a fright and a red face, but look how many people you've made laugh today. xxx

                    It reminds me when I tried to kill a Velvet button thinking it was Spider the hammer kept bouncing off it and took me a while to realise why

                        I think we’ve all had experiences like that Enfys, Oma and her “spider” for instance.😀So glad it wasn’t a cat!

                          Oma, that made me laugh - and reminded me of one day when I was working as a Secretary. I spent ages trying to decipher a shorthand outline I'd written. Nothing made sense. In the end, I had to go and ask my boss, knowing he'd by quite scathing about my slovenly shorthand. As I stood there, reading the difficult sentence out to him, the "outline" rolled off the page - it was an eyelash!
