End of an era

26 December 2016

With the recent death of Fidel Castro, Milky Way has taken the opportunity officially to end all pretence at a chicken commune. She has, instead, instituted a right-wing dictatorship led by her good self, and is enforcing the new regime with gusto. Her well aimed pecks have seen Etoile Filante becoming accomplished at the 50 yard dash in any direction leading away from Milky Way’s beak. The silkies, unable to see above their head feather canopies, are convinced at regular intervals that the sky is falling.
