Next in the frog series

On the night of the fire, Will was supposed to be helping Geoff and Jamie with it but was instead scouring our garden for creatures.

He found a frog, which from the markings and secretion on its back we decided was probably poisonous. See! I was right to wonder about the last one. He asked for a cup to take it home in to photograph - I've told him he can keep the cup!

After a while Nat rang to see if he was still alive. He claimed that the poison was neurotoxic and he couldn't move - we just laughed, which made him huff down the phone.

The next day, when I checked my email I discovered this:

Subject: banded rubber frog says...

BITE ME.

I laughed a lot. Particularly because the frog does appear to be taunting you to bite him and it's relevant because I'd been threatening to say that to some people here that had annoyed me!!
