Clearing out the old seed packets, pods and catalogues amongst the conservatory plants this lucky caterpillar (see imago)was itself cleared of all charges of tucking into the aforementioned plants. It was about to take its chances amongst the local bird population (see picture)when I noticed that it had holed the paper viking boat in which it had become embedded in route to being encased.
As with most newspapers you can see the spin if you look closely. Shame it hadn't wrapped itself up in the editorial forked tongue section - it could have turned it into a silk purse.
Time to go to get The Sun with the holidays coming up. The last two European camp sites that we have been to no longer appear on their listings. I know we left an impression but I didn't think we overstepped the Plimsoll Line.

It had more chance against the birds than the dreaded scissors!
