ME?... a nature lover?... What ARE you thinking of?!!

I'm just wondering if you saw three horsemen riding towards you?

Nah, they’d stopped at the services because famine had eaten all the sandwiches again!

I thought there were four? How would they get past you? Looks just wide enough for one car w/no shoulders or lay-by in sight.

Yep,so did I Paul!....
You're right though,that stretch of road is only just wide enough for a van... and is about a mile long, with no passing places,you just have to hope you don't meet anything coming the other way.... otherwise it could be a fair reverse back!!:tired:

You'll have to excuse me Paul, I was never classically educated, mind you, educated might be pushing it a bit !

There's a few roads like that in Devon. (I found). For some reason when No 1 son lived out Wembury way he used to divert us off the A38 down similar roads. It's quicker says he!!!! Only if no-one else is coming the opposite way!!!

Don't be disappointed if you don't see the hedgehogs using your hedgehog home, they have large ranges so may just use it as a stopping off place rather than a nest. i built three for our garden and only 1 is regularly used.

a couple of weeks ago Tina found a little one by the roadside during the day, she took it to our local hedgehog rescue centre Website where they looked after it (de-liced, worked etc). It was released in our garden one evening - in one of the boxes and next day it had gone and we havn't seen it since!

if you wonder how we know we havn't seen it - the rescue centre colour codes them:



the photo shows her in one of the homemade houses, made from 3/4 inch plywood. The cardboard blocks the entrance - we were advised to block it to keep her in for the first night, with a little cat food. apparently doing that makes it feel safer and more likely to return.
