“Zebras?” I raised my eyebrows.
She sniggered. “Yes. Haven’t you heard that saying?”
I shook my head.
“Dr Theodore Woodward. When you hear hoofbeats, think horses not zebras.”
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
“Well, in this context, the most common explanation is likely to be the right one.”
“So that wailing probably isn’t a ghost?” I was disappointed, in a way.
“No, Chris, I think you’ll find it’s the boiler on the blink again.”
I know the sound of the boiler and the hooves on the roof. Good one! I really enjoyed following you from A-Z with all your interesting stories and their unusual endings. Very clever anyway!

Thank you. It’s fascinating keeping up with your blog as your experience of the other side of the world and in Africa, is so different to what I know.?

The same here. It is totally different from Africa here in New Zealand too! Glad you enjoyed it.
