    I know its not an injury...well it was to his property... does anyone remember the report of a guy who had a bit of a disaster trying to kill a mole (moles again!!!)?
    Anyway he drove his nice new Jaguar automatic on to the lawn, stuck hosepipe on exhaust and other end down mole run and switched on engine. Unfortunately the car engaged gear, and accelerated into side of house. Petrol tank then exploded, writing off spanking new car and badly fire damaging very nice house.
    So far score is....
    Moles 2 Stupid humans 0
