donkey distraction...

My 'odd' distraction today...
I also didn't know that each donkey has his/her own style of braying...('hee' = during air intake + 'haw' = during air outflow). Something's wrong if a donkey brays all the time.
+ Donkeys cry-as humans do. However, their tears are silent+never seen. https://t.co/R6pKZC7c2G pic.twitter.com/HwNTguCE1y

Anyway the outcome was she held it in with Herculean effort until we reached a turn off that sent us to some kind of industrial estate near Windsor where we jumped out of the mini and she defecated all over the tarmac with tangible relief shining in her eyes. So, a happy ending.
