I’ll stick to the plan of digging a deep hole with spikes at the bottom deep in the undergrowth of our back garden :eusa-shhh: :lol:
Much of our "garden" is like a minefield (metaphorically).
Her ladyship's veg patch is about a hundred metres from the house, and five levels down with steep slopes between the terraces.
We usually tell each other when going off for an adventure.
I joke that - "have got your map?" or "ball of string" (like in Greek mythology in the labyrinth).
Occasionally an imaginary time-out clicks in and we go hunt for each other, usually resulting in the ridiculous scenario of the adventurer returning to base to find the other absent.
There is the infrequent silliness of adventurer and hunter roles then swapping and a further expedition mounted.
When the trees are in full leaf and/or wild growth at a high level, the vertically challenged missus disappears!
She, nor I for that matter, have not yet taken a tumble over the precipitous drops of two metres in many places between terraces; the outcome would be horrendous for victim and survivor.
So, if digging your pit trap, mind you don't inadvertently become the entrapped and skewered one.
