Once, as a small boy, I was fishing on the banks of the Thet with Dad.

I must have been about 7 years old or suffen.

We noticed that there was a mole borrowing in the riverbank right near to us. Quick as a flash, quick as Chuck Norris, Dad dug the toe-end of his boot into the burrowings just behind the mole, thrust his hand into the disturbed earth, and pulled out moley.

That day my Dad became a superhero to me.

Anyhoo, he showed me the moles bigole shovel paws, and tiny little bleary eyes, and that, and then let it go into the burrow again.

Brilliant.
