So I have bank holiday weekend off to go to truckfest with my better half while @Gator plays let’s drown the sheep
Unbeknown to me that there was one ickle pesty white face darling that kept evading his attempts of capture
Fast forward to this afternoon when I finish work. I’ve made you a brew my darling daughter, mmm what are you after oh daddy dearest
Come with me and help me catch the little darling who for some reason doesn’t seem to like me very much
After and hour of searching the moor for her mum spots the hiding under a tree. Bearing in mind our moor is pretty shocking for huge tufts of dead moor grass that for some reason when you hit the full speed on a quad, you rather harshly come to a rather abrupt halt.
so said little darling sets of a full speed down said hill in to very dangerous moor grass @Gator very gracefully hits a clump of grass and propels himself at a great speed of knots into to handlebars of the quad
After I’ve stopped laughing and listening to some rather strong language (some words I’ve never heard before ). The chase continues. Around the res, across a sunken road and down a shocking track the a res at the bottom. @Gator speeds off after said little darling, while I’m try a drag myself to go and help after having road half way around the moor and climbed up what felt like Mount Everest
As I climb over the final mountain I can here the quad coming back. Pray that he has finally captured the white faced little darling
One happy gator, one extremely knackered gators girl.
