Is that you Neil?




So, I walked outside at 4:30am this morning to chat to the chooks and leave some leftovers for them. The chooks don’t actually get up until it’s well and truly bright, day light (they’re scared of the dark) and they certainly don’t get out of bed for salad scraps – bananas yes – but not salad. Anyway as I wandered out I looked to my left and I noticed a garden ornament (see pic) had been tossed onto the grass from where it normally sits. It’s not heavy but it’s also not light. I looked around the yard, spotted the broom - aka handy weapon - and went to investigate what was going on. I could hear the rustling of something big arsed in the garden but I could see nothing. This is my theory, Neil the bandicoot is back at my place and he has an aversion to the head and is letting me know this ornament does not fit in with his conceptual design ideas in minimalist landscaping or I have an elephant that hides really, really well.


Would I have used the broom on Neil? No, probably not. He’s sort of like family. As for the elephant? Well, I was thinking of getting a guinea pig and it’s the other extreme to that – and I do enjoy extremes…
