The election in Cambridge, wildlife edition


Not only has a frog called Sarkozy taken up residence in our garden but also for some weeks now a duck has been occupying the agapanthus at the entrance to Seven and Nine’s rural primary school – the same school that Cactus Kate attended.

It is Cactus’s birthday today, so in her honour we have named the duck Trevor.

Capture it SS and fatten it up then shoot it during season. Seems only fitting.

Regards to the school. Not that I would recognise it. Only had around 50 students when I started.

That approach may work in Flaxmere where I assume you are from Anonymous but I would expect at least dinner, a bottle of champagne and to actually meet you after written references from all previous wives and ex girlfriends before contemplating such act.

Apologies, CK - I don't pre-approve comments and that one from Flaxmere snuck in while I wasn't looking. Dinner, champagne and references are absolutely in order. Also it is usually considered polite for the man to say "Please".

I saw that comment before it was deleted. I'd say it is usually considered polite for the man to beg.
