I've been away from this forum for a while, so I hope I'm not posting redundant news. Has anyone read this story? I don't think I'd be spoiling it if I mentioned that the "Ugly Chickens" are actually dodos.

Where have you been hiding, PP?

heehee, you said pee-pee.

Hey plockers, long time no see.

Thanks, 2-plock. It's down on the list. (The list that keeps getting longer every day.) (Hee, hee, "down" on the list, get it?!?)

Nice to be back, if only briefly! I spent most of January in bed with The Worst Head Cold Ever, and, since I returned to work, they've been changing my hours as well, so I've not been able to keep up with several forums.

I'm scheduled to attend the Ffestiva.(I used to own a Ford Festiva, BTW - a small car made my KIA, IIRC). I'm bringing WillSpeak (the puppet) and a flock of (plush) dodos to occupy my booth space along with Ravens, Mammoths, Cheshire Cats - the Usual Crowd of Puppets.

Looking forward to seeing Ffellow Fforde Ffans once again!

Oh OC, that's soooooo immature!

Read it in the days when I could find many anthologies of short stories before they renovated the library-
you know, by hiding all the good out-of-print books in the archives...
