Elephants near the garden

Me: How is your garden going?
Friend: The elephants are disturbing there.
Me: The elephants are in your garden?
Friend: Not my garden, the neighbouring gardens. Causing a lot of damage! But they are not in mine yet. At least the farmers there are very wise. They have made what is like a bomb. It explodes, makes a big noise and scares the elephants away. It doesn’t hurt the elephants though.

Just one of your everyday conversations on the back of a boda (motorbike) whilst travelling in to town.
