Day 37.5 of the lockdown blog. Benji’s words this evening were “woof woof and woof” emphasis on the woooof. Basically the rats are running riot. After he told me he saw one near our car I opened the curtains just in time to see it make a rather magnificent jump up into the nether side of our car. Showing an uncharacteristic amount of speed I limped out to my car in pjs and bright orange clashing hoody sporting the latest in designer stormtrooper water pistols I opened the door started the engine and stood back. It was at this stage that Benji said “what the woof” as the rat ran over my foot and took off for the other side of the car park (sorry fellow residents) like in the words of Meatloaf “a bat out of hell”. Staring at the car park is now apparently an essential part of our evening. Not sure who got the bigger shock the rat when I started the engine or me when it ran over my foot!
Car temporarily moved to a neighbours space as it was that or sit on the patio with a water pistol all night.
