I think Eric is practicing upon the credulity of the non-Aussies... <g>
Wombats, I am given to understand, are chunky, solitary, ground-dwelling
marsupials (I'm visualizing grubby big koalas on all fours, digging
furiously). They hardly seem capable of swarming, or of fitting under an
MG's seats; and being marsupials, the youngsters (which might meet the
criteria) are unlikely to be seen outside the pouch. But perhaps I am
mistaken?
However, there are plenty of venomous and otherwise undesirable creatures
down under to keep one on guard whilst undertaking automotive maintenance,
I'm sure.
