I spend one night away from the bush compound and all hell breaks loose. Gary was asleep when a mouse ran under his mattress; Gary was lying with his hands behind his head, so when Smokey leapt on to the mouse via his head, Gary's first reaction was to scream and fling his hands up to protect himself, which of course caught Smokey mid-leap, flinging him across the room. Gary turned on the torch to see Smokey glaring at him from the other side of the room, unhurt.
Smokey then ran across Gary to get at the mouse, which was now panicking wildly amongst the bedding, with Gary leaping around flailing with the torch and Honey barking outside. Eventually everyone gave up and went back to sleep, until five in the morning when Smokey woke Gary up by calmly tapping on his head. "Do you want to go out?" asked Gary. Smokey walked over to the door and looked back at him, so Gary let him out. Smokey is so smart.
I'm going over tonight, lord knows what mayhem awaits me.
