Mum & Wally the Weasel 1970-ish

Whilst my brother was staying he asked if I'd encountered, during the clearance of dad's house, a photo he remembered of mum with his pet weasel. I found it today, and sent him a copy - it was a bit damaged and so I cleaned it up as much as possible. Johnnie found this baby weasel on the roadside, took it home and brought it up as his own! His name was, of course, Wally. Johnnie was always bringing home strange animals he'd find on his travels!
What a fabulous picture and story!

She had such a nice smile. The weasel is much smaller than I expected. Great story.
