No, it's not a tennis ball!

Ellie, our beautiful retriever, retrieved this in the garden last night. She appeared at the living room patio doors with him in her mouth. He was huge....tightly curled up in a ball, of course. We put him back into the hedgerow at the top of the garden and he trundled off about his nightly business. He was fine - Ellie has a very gentle mouth. Chapel Walk, Cliddesden
