The legend of Badger, Ratty, Toad and Mole

Take the qualities of the Badger, the thinker, the philosopher and the politician. The resourceful Rat, scavenging for things of use, The intuition of the Toad, coupled with the building and architectural skills of the Mole. Well, in this instance, none of these apply.

For the Badger in our story was accident prone

The Rat was not in the least bit resourceful,

The Toad thought intuition was something to do with trains,

And the Mole had the navigation skills of a brick.

And so armed heavily against the elements, the four of them took up climbing as a hobby, they took:-

  • GPS (with no batteries)
  • Ropes (but couldn't tie a knot)
  • More cameras than people
  • and lots of mobile phones, none of which worked!

And together they set out to explore this green and pleasant land, to explore the mountains, the valleys, the lakes and of course test the finest local ales that could be found. And then test them again just to be sure.

Eagles may soar! but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines!
