I would have assumed it would have involved a full recital examination.

 

I can just imagine the conversation at the dinner table that night when the inevitable question was asked at dinner โ€œHow did you day go at work todayโ€

 

Maybe those that didn't pass or survive the examination ended up on the menue.


I'd be hoping the inspector was not the cook.

At 6am on Wednesday, the birds were finally released, allowing them to โ€œcircle above the five-starred red flag overheadโ€.

 


Maybe they gave them enemas and just needed to check that the "coast was clear".

 

Just one pigeon can make a bit of a mess.

 

Bad enough if you're a spectator looking up to watch (with or without hat and sunnies), but it would also be a bit disrespectful if they got it on the flag....

 

 

Wouldn't want to wash that after 10,00 pigeons had flown above it.

 

BTW, any reason they specifically used pigeons? Butterflies and doves too cliche?

Jokes aside though...this is an extremely serious matter

 

.... I had a Tallowood explode the other day and I thought it was a Magpie

 

...but now I am pretty sure it was actually a pigeon in a burqa

Well, I read the topic, and down through the replies and come to the conclusion that I want the last 5 minutes of my life back.
