A flock of ten flamingoes have met a brutal end at a zoo in Eskilstuna in eastern Sweden after a curious anteater broke into their compound and clawed them to death, leaving a further five birds nursing injuries.

Ice cream works.

Besides: It was Colonel Mustard in the Library with the Wrench and the Spiderbots. James should consult with Pat on how Things Work.

Mustard is Yellow
Mr Green was white
I think conservatory must be a fancy English word for bathroom.

I don’t think it was spiderbots in the mustard. That would get them all sticky and attract ants into their circuitboards.

You know when people had “A” phone in there house and you were told” there are out watering the garden and will be with you in a minute” we all know what that really meant.

There, in the midst of the carnage, stood a heavily armed spiderbot weilding a lead pipe.
Nested ablative armor shells, focused pulsed plasma discharge arrays, multijointed battle legs, twin graspers on either side of angry seeming photograrrays in front of which waved the pipe.
I had to pause on the lead pipe.

Or if you had children, they would simply report, “She’s in the bathroom. Do you want to wait until she comes out?”

The sleeps are arriving here, too. I’ll be up early watering the gardens again, although “they say” it will rain tomorrow night or Wednesday morning.

Or they’d help by opening the bathroom dfoor.

Door to door salesman, “Hey little girl, is your mom home?”

Rotten kid monster, “Yeah, she’s in here.” *Opens bathroom door*

I have always preferred using the reading room. Not to be confused with the reading railroad, but then they very well could have a reading room on the reading railroad.

"A cat is here snoozling at my ankles. I think their food bowl is emp .... "

Oh, dear! Tax-chick interrupted mid-post.

It looks as though she's been dragged off by a carnivore ... again.

Along with the mustard-stained thread, it would appear.

Long day of meetings, and more meetings, followed by return to hotel then a trip to Fisherman's Wharf again for dinner tonight. Think I'm staying closer the rest of the trip, though there's a Persian restaurant near the local church I might try. If I get to services Wednesday I might even get to see the Archbis

One can always hope that the carnivore dragging you off will become distracted.

The carnivore went out to dig up the gardens. Nothing she likes better than freshly-turned topsoil ...
