"Tariq settled down
for the evening, happy that his life had got back to normal after the strange
meeting with the feather in a skin-tight yellow Lycra bodysuit; a feather who
had been brought to life after being struck by lightning on Halloween, just a
day or so ago.
Tariq’s thoughts turned to the Tortoise
Tall Story Talkathon; an event which was going to take place in about five or
six month’s time, in the spring. He couldn’t wait to meet up with his friends
and tell them about the strange day he’d had. He was sure they would wonder in
disbelief as he told them about the amazingly weird feather from the sky; a
feather that liked to be called Dave."
