Dave & Vinny: Little Red

Longcroft Estate, Rampant Horse pub.

"I saw a red squirrel today Vinny."
Dave sipped his pint.
"Really mate? They're a bit rare these days."
Vinny sipped his pint.
"So I understand. The grey squirrels have all but wiped them out."
"So can you imagine how tough that little bugger must be to still be around?"
"Oh yeah. He's practically the terminator of squirrels."
"I'd like to think he's more the Rambo of squirrels. Setting traps for all the Grey's. "
"Yeah mate getting flashbacks from nam. Sewing up his little paw without anaesthetic. Telling the boss of the Grey's to bring a good supply of body bags."
