Holes

TB's Life took Another Downturn yesterday. Was hiding in the hedge to avoid having to go for an energetic walk when it was suddenly and without warning attacked by one of the 3 Stroppy Blackbirds. We all heard a definite sharp clunk and an agonised yelp and TB erupted from its hiding place. Shaking its head vigorously. In which we later found a small hole, no doubt occasioned by a blackbird's beak.

TYK could not have been more sympathetic (which was just as well as it is undoubtedly the sole cause of the blackbirds' rage) and spent a long time comforting TB and washing its head.

Went out to the allotment to check on the rats' progress and was rewarded by the sight of several new holes in the long grass by the chicken pen. Shall continue TYK's Education with immediate effect.
