I think animals have an awful lot to teach us.

Huge amount to teach us.

And the older I get, the more important they are.

Like I spent last summer, the end of last summer, trying to make my garden more wildlife friendly.

I failed on both.

We've discovered we had hedgehogs, which I got very excited about.

Two hedgehogs.

And I got a hedgehog box and I bought straw and everything.

But I don't think they've hibernated.

I'm waiting to see.

I'm afraid to take the lid off in case they are in there.

Yeah, because they're only coming out of hibernation around now.

They wait for the weather to get a bit better.

And if you ever upset them with that, just like... Well, I wouldn't like to, you know, wake them up too early.

Do you know, I don't know what they were.

They used to come in and eat the cat food, but then obviously they hibernated.

I don't know if they're in the box or if they're in the bush or where they are.

So I have to wait and see.

But that's the kind of stuff.

That is the kind of stuff, Lord, that I get very excited about.
