Urban-cub is not having a good day. She went out this morning and forgot her purse, only realising as she approached Rustington. She's lost her ankle bracelet and on returning home she dropped her car keys down the drain.
This called for an imaginative solution. The problem is that it is a very deep drain. Magnets were clearly going to be the answer. It was at this point, however, that the Gorse Fox had to take the Silver Vixen into Chichester for her appointment at the hospital.
When we got back, the Gorse Fox and Two Hats teamed up and used some gaffer tape to attach 5 neodymium magnets to the end of a very long bamboo pole. The pole was plunged into the murky depths and slowly moved around. Suddenly it felt heavier. The pole was raised and the keys nestled at the end. It took a bit of cleaning up, but everything is now sorted.
