Hedge

.......... Of some sort.

No idea what kind of hedge this is. I only know it has lots (and lots) of sharp spikes.
You don't normally get hedges like this with the two holes like you see here. Noooo you don't.

These holes only happen if -

A) the hedge is at the bottom of a fairly steep hill.
B) there is a child halfway up said fairly steep hill.
C) there is a child halfway up said fairly steep hill with roller blades on.
D) there is a child halfway up said fairly steep hill with roller blades on and no brakes.

Yes, you only get these types of holes, in these types of hedges, when there is a child, halfway up a fairly steep hill, with roller blades on, with no brakes, who is panicking coz they can't stop, who literally flies down, at what looks like 100mph.......... and heads straight for the hedge.

These are not just any holes.

These, are Abbie's hand and arm holes.

The girls and I, and Abbie's friend were walking (except for Abbie of course) to the shop. I'm so glad I was there, although I admit to nearly peeing myself laughing coz it looked so funny.
Until I realised that the hedge had those spikes.

Abbie turned around, screaming, holding her hands out.
O M G!
The next 10minutes were spent calming her down and picking out the spikes that had embedded themselves into the palms of her hands and cleaning up the blood.

What did we do after that? ........ well we went to the shop and I got a flippin bottle of wine to calm my nerves :))

(Abbie is fine now btw :)

only hope the hedge owner doesn't sue for damages....
