Simoman 110 Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Well I took the kids to visit relatives in Hampshire this weekend and atfer a nightmare journey back which took over seven hours due to getting "parked" on the M40 after a Range Rover caught fire I witnessed a strange sight in a field next to junction 27 of the M1 in Nottinghamshire, in a grass field next to the motorway was a wallaby, now I know there were meant to be a few feral wallabies in Derbyshire but are there any in other parts of the UK? I'm assuming this was an escapee................. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
