A Most Embarrassing Moment
Recently I was listening to a chat show on BBC Radio 4. The presenter asked the panellists to describe one of their most embarrassing moments:

My husband Jim and I had just finished breakfast when the dog came in from the garden carrying a dead rabbit.
We were horrified to find that it was Barney, much loved pet of our neighbours Jane and William, who had gone away for the weekend.
We cleaned up Barney as best we could and Jim went next door and put him back in his hutch.
Next day when I saw Jane I asked her how she was.
“We are both a bit traumatized at the moment.” said Jane, “You know our pet rabbit Barney? Well, he died last week and William buried him at the bottom of the garden. And this morning we found him back in his hutch!”

Thank you Steve, David, Loyd.

I nearly always work at 2000 x 1500 px and try to avoid web downloads which are less than 1000 x 1000 px. Careful use of the Unsharp Mask helps. Murky areas need some repainting or smudging or cloning. Hotchips coverts my images to 1500 x 1126 px which normally looks OK.

He keeps setting his own bar higher and I can't even jump up to his first bar, much less over it...
