Critters!

No, not the movie where balls of small furry creatures from outer space eat their way through a small town in the USA, but the ones that live in the countryside here in the UK!
Here I was on the train and found that the book I had checked out of the library was one that I had already read! Well when you read virtually only from the Sci Fi and Fantasy section from the library, avoiding those trilogies that turn into a sextupleties ones as the whole set is never in the library at the same time and you can never remember the author to follow-up when they do come in books, then it's pretty easy to pick one that you've read!
So I had to spend the more than an hour journey to work sightseeing! It was fab... all the fields with horses, mini horses, sheep and cows - the usual English countryside and then there were the sightings that I usually miss with my head in a book! The fox, cotton tails and deer! Wicked and quite cool to see them contentedly eating in the fields and woods by the tracks.. well except for the odd skittish cotton tail that would go bolting across the field as if the fox was after it! Silly rabbit didn't know that the train couldn't come off it's tracks!
Now I just have to remember that when I'm at the library next time to read the first couple of paragraphs of the book to see if I've read it already!
