Når man har en have, må man grave. Der er rødder der skal graves op, planter der skal plantes, vandhuller der skal laves og ind i mellem er der nogen der bare har lyst til at grave et hul.
Den slags huller er som regel midlertidige. Måske skal pladsen i bedet bruges til noget andet, måske ligger hullet bare i vejen - nogen gange var det ligefrem det der var meningen med hullet; hvis det nu er en fælde, for eksempel. Uglemor er mere end en gang gået i fælder der var opstået sådan pludseligt. Der er dog aldrig sket værre ting end forskrækkelser og våde fødder.

Ⓗ is for holes.
When you have a garden, you have to dig. Weeds have to be dug out, plants have to be planted, ponds have to be made, and sometimes somebody just feels like digging a hole.
The latter kind of holes are usually transient in nature. Maybe we want to use that place for something else, maybe the hole is in a wrong place. Sometimes holes are deliberately placed in wrong places, functioning as traps. MotherOwl has been caught in suddenly appearing holes several times; luckily with no more ill effects than a fright and wet feet.

This was one of those transient holes. It became a great deal larger before it disappeared.
When I was a child we had a dog who dug a hole big enough and deep enough for the small girl next door and me to hide in. These days the holes in our garden are usually dug by me.
SvarSletHoles big enough to hide in. Sounds fun for little children. It must have been either a very big or very energetic dog.
SletIt sounds like your children have fun digging those holes. Yes, when you have to weed the garden, it's best to dig a hole and get the root or bulb, or it will just be back the very next minutes (or so it seems).
SvarSletIt's good to know I',m not the only one with weeds regrowing as I turn my back to them.
SletAnd Yes It is my children having fun digging those "now you see them - now you don't" holes
Very seasonal piece for 'H' well done!
SvarSletThanks.
