A Close Shave.

Readers of this blog almost exactly a year ago might remember me making a post about being charged by a bull in the field at the back of the house. It stopped when I held up both hands and said ‘whoa!’

I was just talking to the farmer’s son, and he told me how the same animal had charged the tractor the same day (it was the day he was trimming my hedge, which was why I was in the field paying him his money.) They realised it had become wild and dangerous, he said, and needed to be put down. They shot it in the field the same night.

Sad for the animal, I know, and I do feel sad for it, but it seems I might have had a narrow escape.
