Ducknapped

duck copy.jpg

No sooner had I posted about our village’s unusually large duck, it disappears. We went down this Sunday to throw some bread in it’s general direction and it wasn’t there.

A coincidence? I very much doubt it. Initially I suspected Rol. After all he lives in the same village as me and so would have easy access. What’s more, I’m pretty sure he wrote a blog post about the perfect recipe for orange sauce recently.

But then I got to thinking, perhaps Rol isn’t guilty. Perhaps he is being set up. If I’ve learnt anything from Poroit it’s that you should never go with the obvious suspect. So, who else do I know with a predilection for unusually large birds?

Jeff, we want our duck back you bastard.

    Nice try, but you can’t pin this one on me. For 3 reasons:
    1. I’m allergic to down
    2. I was eating a Marmite sandwich at the time of his abduction
    3. I’ve never been to England
    Flimsy I know, but I’ve got a good lawyer.

    Maybe the duck is just in hiding, avoiding all the media attention from your incendiary blog expose.

    He’ll come out eventually, when he needs his Starbucks fix or something.

    Perhaps he only comes out at night now like Count Duckula?

    I’m thinking alien abduction here. Though I’ve always felt that ducks were thoroughly unnatural, especially mallards.

    [...] it was the Duck of Unusual Size! He wasn’t ducknapped after all, he’d just relocated. Someone must have tipped him off that Jeff was after him and [...]

    I asked Sherlock Holmes to investigate what he called the missing “Capon Caper”. He found corn on Jeff’s floor and from the river to the door. This told him big duck was lured, sprayed with windex, and stuffed into the missing 5th donation bag. Sorry! Bill
