And Elmer Fudd thought Bugs Bunny was a challenge...

Today we all enjoyed a jolly lunch with author Zoë Sharp and her hubby Andy. They had just come from filming a Meet the Author video where Zoë talks about her thriller Second Shot (Look out for the clip - will be online soon!) before heading off to a photoshoot in Oxstead. (Zoë doubles as a photo-journalist for the motorpress ie. if you ever believe the stereotype that authors hide in their studies wearing twead - think again. You're much more likely to see Zoë hanging out of a fast-moving Ford GT to get a cool low-angle shot.)

Anyway, amongst banter about dodgy flights, property development and book covers, the conversation somehow veered onto German Giant Rabbits...which of course I then HAD to google and I now share with you the evidence of what can only be described as: nature gone slightly mad. (Please refer to above image - I think it's eaten Peter Rabbit.) Will you look at the thing? Bit of a large target for rabbit hunters, but I bet this hefty fella wouldn't go down with one shot... or even a Second Shot. Or even a Third Strike ! (See? See what I just did there?)
I won't begrudge any rolling of the eyes...

Hey! What's up with your site? t won't load. Is it just my wacky computer?
Had me really worried for a minute. But here you are; safe, happy and talking about giant rabbits. Phew. Nothing out of the ordinary then.
