Default Rocking horse death

Woke up this morning and found my rocking horse dead on the floor.
I tried mouth to mouth (mouthwash afterwards).
Had a go at CPR, to no avail.
He was fine last night.
Oh well! I suppose they can't live forever.

But you'll miss the rocking horse **** for the roses. Scarce stuff at
the best of times, I'm told.

Very true. :-)

What was the cause of death? If it was death watch beetle you will need
to burn the carcass, other wise put it on the compost heap.

If you were wodney I'd be asking if you're sure you were giving CPR to the right end. He gets easily confused at his age.
