It's what brothers are for

Back at the allotment today and we make our usual pre-gardening walk about. 53 looked OK except the rabbits had been nibbling at the steps of the fig, I then opened the gate to 51/52 and had the great shock of a present left by Ted tied to the door handle of the greenhouse.

When we saw him we showed our gratitude and interest in his trapping of them and what he did with them next but wandered back thinking what on earth do we do now.



Only one thing for it........ the cavelry was called.





Those of you who are squeemish stop reading now.





It didn't take long for them to be skinned and prepared. It is a shame that we don't know any way of preparing the skins as they are so thick and fluffy at this time of year.

I was rather pleased to see that we have trendly rabbits at the allotment as once their coats are off they are kitted out in the greatest ski boots with matching tail! (click on the image for a closer look)
