Mr Crow...if I offended you I do apologize.


LOL! 'Mr. Crow' - that's what I called our one-time pet crow!
It looked a bit like this one:

This was about two or three years ago.
It wasn't really a pet - it was just a young one that couldn't fly at all, and it was basically trapped in our garden. We fed it for months, and it would hop around the garden, and outside the back door.
And if I was in a bored mood, and looked out the window, and saw it perched on a plant-pot or stone outside, I would say, in a rather high-pitched and camp voice: "Mister croooowwww!"
Anyway, my dad and I went away on a two-week holiday. My auntie went round to feed it while we were away. But, sometime during the two weeks we were away, it disappeared. We never knew what happened to it.
Did it learn to fly? Did it move away to another home? Did it get killed by something? No-one knows.
I've decided to make up a hastily arranged little verse for the occasion. I will call it:
Ode to Mr. Crow
Where did you go, Mr. Crow?
We searched high and low, don't you know?
We had to go away,
And we wished that you would stay,
But I guess you had to go, Mr. Crow!
Just a crazy little aside from me, on the road to 888.![]()


so intense. So intense
