I had a very unusual experience today.
I was driving along thinking about what I was going to make for dinner when I saw a furry bundle running along the centre line of the road. I flashed the oncoming car and slowed down to see what it was. It was a koala. A HUGE koala!
It didn't know if it was coming or going. Just when we thought it was nearly across the other side of the road it changed it's mind and decided it liked the other side better. By this time there was quite a queue of traffic waiting on him making up his mind so I pulled the car in to the side and got out to help him make his mind up. I didn't want to pick him up because he was so big and he had big claws to match so I herded him over to the other side.
At one point he sat right down on the centre line and looked up at me as if to say "I like it here so p*@s off you daft sheila". Eventually he got up, ran across the road and climbed up the nearest tree.
Thank god I didn't pick him up. Paul told me they have huge claws to climb up trees.
That's my good deed done for the day!
