Oh I forgot to tell you...

On Friday night I fell in a ditch up to my knees in mud. It was deceptively covered in long grass. I landed, sank down with a squelch and found myself stuck there with the suction.

I pulled out my feet and my shoes remained in the mud. I had to reach in to retrieve them. Had I been with someone it would have been hilarious. As it was I was all on my own, wet, filthy dirty, ruined trousers, and a bit annoyed.
