THE BADGER IS GONE..LONG LIVE THE BADGER!

The badger has gone! Our nocturnal stuffed night-time security has sold. I think that sale qualifies highly in the random purchase of the year award. That badger had kept many a child silent. Well...they do ask if it’s real – of course it is! If you watch very carefully you might see it blink! Apparently many children did see it blink.

Maybe we should get a stuffed sloth, they don’t move much in real life. We could have one hanging from the rafters. That might keep the little ones quiet. Or for the really troublesome kids perhaps a coiled puma with extended claws, hidden in a cupboard. And the old classic ‘stuffed cobra in a bread bin’. However, I suspect we will end up with a fox...but you never know. The other day I nearly bought an old water buffalo skull (think that’s what it was!) with some serious hornage attached. Now THAT would definitely win random purchase of the year!
