For example, one of my recent slayings was a Squirrel back in the Autumn.
I was powering down a country lane on my racing back while I was in training. I saw this squirrel run out in front of me, so I swerved to avoid it. But then into my path ran another Squirrel.
I felt it crunch under my front tyre – it was very immediate as I could feel its bones crunch all the way up to my handle bars, I saw that I went over its back. Horrible.

My most recent was in December I think. I was driving in my car early in the morning when a bird flew out in front of me. It completely vanished as it went under my bonnet. I thought I had missed it as birds seem to escape car collisions all the time. But no. I looked in my rear view mirror and saw it reeling to the deck, feathers everywhere.
