Tender Care

This morning a lady gave Maffi a pigeon and asked him to ring its neck as it had been attacked by a dog or a cat or perhaps even the lady. Maffi looked at said pigeon and decided he would nurse it back to life. He put it on the roof of the boat and gave it readybrek and water (don't ask). Here he is:



You'd never guess that two hours later he did ring its neck as he said it had taken a serious turn for the worse - although I did wonder whether Maffi was qualified to tell the difference between pigeon dying, and pigeon having a snooze..

I hope you meant he had to WRING its neck. Ringing it would be a slow and painful way to go . . .
