Come-Uppance

OLAHF (aka NLF) put an end to CM's smirking. Quite by accident as OLAHF simply doesn't know how to be unkind, but t'was a glorious come-uppance nonetheless:

CM had decided for the first time in weeks to have a gentle stroll outside its very over-the-top conservatory and was part way down the garden. Stopped to investigate a large frog. Enter OLAHF at great speed over the side fence, legs moving so fast they were but a blur. The frog saw what was coming first and jumped upwards, hitting CM neatly under the chin. CM went straight up in the air and came back down where it started, putting a paw on top of the frog and taking off again when it felt the damp squirminess. OLAHF braked hard but not anything like hard enough and hit CM amidships with a resounding and echoing thud, sending it rolling into the pond. In company with the frog. Surfaced very wet and miffed. OLAHF tried to say sorry but got thumped. CM snarled very nastily in a vulgar manner utterly different from its usual sniffy and superior manner and dripped back into the conservatory where it sat on a pile of newly ironed clothes.

OLAHF came back home with Myself for a snack and sympathy. (Not cream crackers.)
