Things I Thought I Saw
Have you ever seen things and mistaken them for something else? I have. I was driving home from work late one night last week. It’s a long drive through the country, and it was getting dark. This is what I thought I saw:

A 10-foot meerkat (it was a tree stump)

A small red-faced snowman wearing a top hat (it was a thin reflecty bollard with a poster fixed to it about a third of the way down)

Some white rabbits playing musical statues (they were stones on someone’s verge)

A giant pair of trousers and a chair (it was a ruin on a hillside in silhouette)

A dead angler in the River Tweed (it’s been there a fortnight, I think it’s just a bit of wood)

A herd of penguins (again, bollards)

About a million frogs on the road (nope, just leaves. Didn’t stop me squealing every time I ran over one though)

Everything looks different in the nearly dark!
