So the wife comes home and as we are outside ready to meet her we all troop in one after the other. Suddeny the kids come belting in yelling… “There’s a dragonfly in the house… a big one!!”
So I believe them? Well no of course not… until the wife shouts the same thing… so I go to investigate, and sure enough there is a dragonfly with a wingspan at least 5″ racing about the hall banging into everything in its way.
Eventually it charges into the toilet and after a bit more argy bargy settles on the air vent. Off goes I in ‘brave knight’ mode to find some equipment. I choose a wide plastic jug and some A4 sheets of paper.
The thing is easily caught, transferred outside and allowed to fly free.
Unfortunately… in trying to catch it, I slipped off the toilet seat, which broke… and now I have a mornings work going to get a new one and fitting it… grrr.
