I thought Squirrels were supposed to be found in trees.

No this one is not covered by The RAC or the AA.

Captain you know I told you about Marshmellow mountain, well the chaps are out taking samples.

This is the last time you navigate.

So 1 avalanche
2 Bury the mother in law
3 claim the insurance
4 off to the bar
5 Peace and quiet.
