AfTER morning prayers, Brother Peter set off for a countryside walk. He crossed a gap in a wall whereupon, to his utter astonishment, he spotted an otter stuck in a fence. He cautiously approached to see what had happened. He discovered that the otter had broken a miter joint which had resulted in the fence collapsing and trapping the otter. Brother Peter lifted up the collapsed part of the fence and the otter ran off. Brother Peter felt quite pious at his good deed. He considered mending the fence somehow, or constructing a barrier of some sort to deter other creatures from mishap, but he realised that was beyond his skill set!
