Edwin I can assure you that you would not want to if you had seen her. :eek:

We watched in amazement as dressed in a bright blue tracksuit she chased a group of deer and stag from one end of the park to the other. It never seemed to occur to her to either creep up on them slowly or just sit down and wait for them to get nearer :mad:
