Mrs May, our District Nurse, was driving home at 3 a.m. one night
after an urgent visit to a sick patient. She was driving along a
deserted country lane, when she saw a new kind of animal. She stopped
her car and got out. The animal was clearly visible in the blaze of her headlights.
It looked like a hedgehog with a tall white hat. It was crossing the road without
paying any attention to Mrs May. As Mrs May was going close to it, she noticed that
there was a plastic yoghurt pot on the hedgehog's head. The poor creature had got
its head stuck in the plastic pot!
Her instincts as a nurse told her she would have to rescue it, so she pulled
at the pot, but the hedgehog was pulling too. After a struggle, she pulled the pot
off the hedgehog's head. Mrs May thought the hedgehog was looking rather sad when
she noticed that the pot was half full of strawberry yoghurt. She gave it
back to the hedgehog. The creature seized it, put it on its head again,
and triumphantly continued its journey across the road.
