A couple of days ago I was sitting at the engraving bench quite happily working away on a watch and generally being one with the universe.
Out of the corner of my eye a noticed the curtain move slightly. I didn't think anything of it because with all the aftershocks strange movements around the house are nothing unusual.
A few minutes later the curtain moves again, just ever so slightly. I check around for the cats and there they all engaged in their favorite activity of sleeping on the couch behind me.
So I pull back the curtain wondering what on earth it was.............and there, sitting between the bench and the wall tucked into the bottom of the curtain was a hedgehog looking at me. While I was working away this thing had crept into the engraving room past me and the "guard cats" and settled down for an afternoon nap.
By this time the cats were on full alert and gave me their best "What the #$%^& look" and promptly went back to sleep and left me to sort it out..........as they do.
So I managed to gently pick it up on the end of a shovel and put it in the garden. It was last seen with it's bum toward me burrowing into the hedge.
For those of you that don't know what a hedgehog is I've attached a picture taken from the internet.
Cheers
