Has this Tommy been darted?

    Got something sticking in its rump - looks like maybe a tranquilliser dart?

    Ha, that's an acacia thorn! Poor tommy. They are like nails, great for puncturing tyres, or feet.

    Ohhh... poor tommy indeed! Heh... have to admit I thought it looked a bit ... rustic for a dart. 😃
