A good haul.



It's rare that I ever take a bird home, especially ones I find face down on the floor outside Oceana, but saturday was the exception.
I found this dead pigeon by Oceana just before work, I didn't have my bag on me and I'm pretty sure my Thekla work force collective wouldn't appreciate me putting a dead Pigeon in the staff lockers, even though I must stress it is a wood Pigeon not a common gutter bird.

So, with little time, I hid it behind a bin in a corner, it wasn't till half an hour later that I realised this was the worst place to put anything as Bristolian Gentlemen are prone to relieve themselves in corners, more so considering Oceana sells double vodka red bull for £1.50.

Afterwork Hannah, whom I work with, presented me with a walking stick( pictured above) she found on the smoking deck, she said excitingly
" OOO I found something you will love"
There's me thinking its going to be a dead Rat or something, she presents me with a walking stick with a mirror on it. I'm baffled to why she assumed I would like it, I mean, I do but it's still pretty random. We collectively decided it's a perv stick, or more interestingly, a pedo stick. At least I don't need to worry about Calum's christmas present.

So we all left work, I went to collect the Pigeon, put it in a black bag, No one noticed or asked where I went and why I returned holding a black bag, strange. I walked home and found the two of diamonds, which is shit, as I thought it was the two of hearts and I was going to link it to a song of the same name, fuck it, I'll do it anyway.

As for the Pigeon, as the unseasonal flies that destroyed my Badger , I have put the Wood Pigeon in the family morgue, more commonly known as the freezer.
I have a lot of faith in Pigeons, The last thing I made from a Pigeon I sold to a Adult performer, and the original, rightfully named The Pigeon few to Venice, then L.A, was photographed by Rankin and ended up on a album cover, which is annoyingly ironic as i spend a fortune on fancy silks and feathers to make stuff that no body seems to care about but as soon as I use a pigeon, the most povo of all birds, people can't get enough.

Pigeons are the way forward.
