Deers and Happy Birthdays

What a day today. My beloved daughter called me this morning and asked me to drop her P.E. kit off at school as she had forgotten it; I duly obliged. On the way back I was driving along at a sedate pace when all of a sudden there was an almighty bang and I saw a brown blur outside my passenger window. When I checked my rear view mirror I was aghast to see a deer lying down in the road not moving. I went down the road a little bit to find a turning point so that I could go back and check on it.
On my way back a woman coming down the lane flagged me and asked if I was the bitch who had just knocked down the deer; being in a state of shock the word "No" popped out of my mouth. I couldn't believe that she talked to me like that, as if I would have intentionally knocked down a deer! It just leaped through the hedge. Anyway when I got back to the deer I parked my car, called my neighbour to tell him that it was injured and asked his advise as I have never knocked anything before.
The deer was sitting up at this time, so I was thankful that it was not dead. More traffic appeared on the lane and out of one of the vehicles came a man, he proceeded to pick up the deer and rushed it back to his car. I told Gordon that I did not need his help now as someone else had taken over - I presumed that he had taken it to the vet.
I say presumed because when I told friends about it later in the day they all surmised that he had taken it to consume it!!! shock! horror!

When I checked my car I was totally surprised to see that there was not a mark on it - I think the deer clipped the car and broke his leg as he fell.

I then took Stamford (my lovely Staffie) for a walk through the woods; I just entered the field coming out of the wood when I was totally surprised by a big stag, he bolted. Not 15 minutes later I saw a female deer leaping and bounding across the field. So today the deer were like buses - three came along at once.

This evening we went down to Crowborough, I had picked up some shopping for Connie (Stuart's mum) and so the family took it down to her. Yasmin was there with Tyler as it is her 10th birthday tomorrow; spent a happy hour there then returned home.

A memorable day!
Hopefully tomorrow I shall get down to some crafting, the only thing I have managed to day was to make a card for Yas.
That's it for now, adios
