You lot are totally killing me
To answer the sensible posts Posie, there was no blood that i noticed.
volence, the strip of river bank is accessed by all the residents on my side of the river and the other side is owned by the residents there, some of which keep it tidy, if there were any big cats around they would be noticed within a couple of hours of arriving. As for fox, there is a family of foxes which live in a field adjoining the riverbank but what i heard was definitely not a fox.
As for the rest of you lot, it was summer before the blackberry had even started to flower so no blackberry and scream
