Toad Hall

St Bernardin

He was there again today as he is every morning when we roll back the pool cover. However, today he was actually in the pool and I must have disturbed him taking his morning exercise.

He is a very chunky toad. I've never seen one that size before so I thought I'd look him up in my wildlife book.

What a disappointment. Nothing unusual or rare. He is a common toad.

Now I'm expecting him to croak in Estuary English.
