We don't have elephants in our garden.

Over to Nick for an interesting reminiscence.

Actually, I never had, either. Leopards, now - and you thought
that you had cat problems?

Tell us about it.

It's not exciting. They are nocturnal, EXTREMELY hard to see if
they don't want to be seen, intelligent, and had long ago learnt
that men who owned guns were too dangerous to hunt. We saw
evidence, but I never saw one.

Where was that?

Northern Rhodesia (now Zambia).

How lovely) I have never been to Africa and now, I never shall
