It was quite a mild evening and I had the doors to the patio slid open and was enjoying the breezes and the fairy lights outside.
THEN
the possum who has been wrecking my garden and peeing in my pool came to visit....... he scurried in and sat under my side table looking happily around! Forget the sore hip - I jumped up and ordered him to leave but instead of that, he ran up to the bookcase and hid behind our box of Trivial Pursuit!!!!! Panic on both sides ensued but the Big Pink Broom did the trick - he realised I didn't want to play with him and went outside and tried to climb up the glass swimming pool wall!
One of my Mother's sayings was "the things you see when you haven't got a gun!" I now know what she meant.....
On the possum's side of things - it must have been a bit scary to be confronted by me with a large pink broom and then to try to scale a glass wall with three elephants on the other side of it!!!!! Let's hope he doesn't come back.
So I finished the night a bit hotter as I wanted to finish what I was sewing and I didn't want to leave the door open any more..
