Meeting the Majors
Bonnie the Sulphur Crested Cockatoo had been a member of the raiding parties who descended to feed on the berries on the old Crone’s Ornamental Pistachio tree each year. These incursions were far from welcome but the harried Crone finally gave in and decided that it was a war that was not worth fighting. These birds were simply too cunning for her.
Then one day Bonnie and the Crone met each other’s gaze and an unlikely friendship was forged. Indeed, the Crone was heard to mutter that if someone had told her she would befriend a Cockatoo and travel with it she would have asked what weed they had been smoking.
However, we digress, as I am sure we will often do.
To cut the story short and get to the point, one day, during the now famous 2020 ‘Great Lockdown‘, these unlikely friends decided that it was time to pack bags and get the hell out of here.
Thus began what became known as their Fools Journey. They were accompanied by an ageing donkey, who made it clear that he was not up to carrying heavy loads, and a mysterious Raven who was also a lone traveler.
