Mowing a grass field
Sitting on a tractor tootling away about 5 M.P.H. cutting some tall thick grass for hay, the sun was shining, the birds were singing , all was right with the world and then suddenly, Oh my god what's this ? A bare naked lady face down partially concealed by the standing grass and I am about to hit her with the mower! So I slammed on both brakes just in time before I collided with the said cadaver.... Then an almighty sigh of relief. It turned out to be a mannequin, a dummy from a dress shop that some idiot had thrown into the field. So I got out of the cab and slung it over the hedge out of the way and then got back in the cab and carried on. I tell you what though, my heart was still pounding in my chest for the next hour or so. What it must be like to actually stumble upon a real murder victim I shudder to think.
