What I found on my travels....
1) When I was just a little carrot, we re-layed our patio at home. The day after we dug it up, I found a caterpillar crawling across it that looked a bit weird. Anyway, I put it in a jar with some leaves and I took it in to show my mum. We looked in many books, but could not find a picture of it. Anyway, one of the National Park wardens was around the area, so I asked him what it was. He was speechless, as it was a caterpillar from a particular meadow butterfly that was thought to be extinct. Cue many days of serious looking men with beards exploring my parents' garden and a wee bit in the local papers, including a photo of me with a horrendous haircut and a gap-toothed smile holding th caterpillar in a jar. So...fairly woo. Apart from the fact that I am pathalogically scared of butterflies, and accidentall saved one breed from extinction. Well done carrot, well done...

2) Me and a friend found a kitten abandoned in a vegetable patch once. Nobody claimed him. My mate took him home, he's called Lucky and is now 18!

Thanks B3TA for a nice happy post, and the chance for me to ramble about my dimensions again!
