Oh keberoxu, nobody on here will believe this, but I was talking to a neighbour the other day, and she said that a horsebox was being towed slowly through the village, when out the back popped the head of a GIRAFFE!!! Honestly, it's quite true - it was on its way to some new theme park thing being set up in a nearby village (This theme park has hundreds of tropical insects on show, an 'Invertebrates Stroking Farm', where people can hold/stroke massive spiders, beetles and millipedes etc. (shudder!)
No swans so far. At bingo last evening, everyone was concerned about why those swans haven't produced any cygnets yet.
But Mr & Mrs Quackie, the pair of mallards, are still waddling around The Bench at my feet. And many pigs have escaped from Mr Barrett's farm to roam at large around the place. Still a very mad village!
