Well it’s funny you should ask that, but I’ve just been reading a great big book about how to put your budgie down, and apparently you can either hit them with the book, or, you can shoot them just there, just above the beak.

Who shall declare this good, that ill  
When good and ill so intertwine  
But to fulfil the vast design of an omniscient will.  
When seeming again but turns to loss  
When earthly treasure proves but dross  
And what seems lost but turns again  
To high eternal gain.

And what is the name of your ravishing wife?..Wait. Don’t tell me - it’s something to do with moonlight - it goes with her eyes - it’s soft and gentle, warm and yielding, deeply lyrical and yet tender and frightened like a tiny white rabbit

I say, Barnes. Did you put something in Mr. Fothergill’s drink?  
No, sir.  
Then why is he squirming on the carpet like that, clutching his throat and his eyes popping out?  
Indigestion, sir?  
Gin ingestion more likely, Barnes. Gather Mr. Fothergill up and prop him against the wall.  
Mr. Fothergill is three times my size, sir.  
Then get a crane or something, Barnes. Think laterally, man!
