Imagine making a mad dash across the road and escaping being flattened, as so many are on the main road that passes our hillside, only to choose the wrong part of the fence to dash through. It went through the narrowest stands of wire at the bottom hard up against a stem of Laurel bush and got itself completely stuck fast. It was a lovely rabbit as well :-(Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04177854521955532744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-21396938622859343502016-08-09T04:47:24.290+01:002016-08-09T04:47:24.290+01:00I feel sorry for the poor rabbit and for you, but ...I feel sorry for the poor rabbit and for you, but needs will, as the saying goes.

Then one morning we came down and found a dead snake.. it had obviously not realised just how fat it had become. Maybe it was that eating the rose?
