We were taken a little by surprise when this Jillaroo, or so she called herself, bounded up to us. And bound she did, like some pre-Olympic enhanced experiment, for her legs were crafted from the finest carbon-fibre and she could leap - and I misuse this word advisedly - literally metres into the air, taking in small vehicles and perhaps even garden sheds beneath a single well-sprung hop.
And furthermore there are wheels underneath those feet so I can only begin to imagine the speeds that would be available to such a creature on its daily commute.
Very charming she was for all that, though, and we left her with a photo as a keepsake to embolden us as we shamelessly jumped the queue for the Showbag Pavilion.
