Hi all, I'm new here.
I just wanted to share my completely irrational fear of molehills,
you know the little mounds of earth dug up by moles. Near where I
live (Wiltshire, UK) is a place called Woodhenge, a less famous
landmark than Stonehenge. Just by it is a piece of grass that is
inundated with the most mind-numbing amount of molehills that I have
ever seen. I cannot look at it as I drive past and it makes me
incredibly uncomfortable knowing that they are all there. I think I
would be less bothered if there was just one, but because the ground
is totally saturated with them it makes it all the more terrifying.
I've been wondering what it is about them that scares me so much and
I think it's the fact that they might be hollow (i.e. an animal has
dug the earth out so the bit under it is hollow and labyrinthine) and
also the fact that an animal (particularly an animal I don't know
much about) has been under them and could be still living there.
I'm not fond of "clusters" in general. Someone once cited on here a
fear of holes e.g. where seeds in a pepper had been and now weren't.
I totally identify and I think it's a similar kind of thing.
Anyone else scared of molehills??........ *shouts into the abyss*
ANYONE?
