No more Serge

[mike wilson]

No, he wasn't a person and in the whole scheme of things it amounts a very small sadness, but Serge keeled over today: he had finished his morning round of the hens and was crowing under his favourite tree, then - silence. Apparently this can happen to highly strung cockerels. He was in his prime, a character, and I shall miss him. The heir apparent doesn't know he's escaped the pot! I don't think he'll amount to much, but we'll see.

 

 

Merde! Je suis desolée...........

Serge a-t-il engendré un fils ? Y a-t-il un petit jeune coq dans votre grange ? J'espère ainsi.

 

A toast to Son Of Serge

 

Le jeune coq vit dessus !

 

Bien sur! There are three of them, actually, but 'er indoors has singled one out to be groomed for stardom, christened Bruno [i insisted on a good, Italian name], and she's hand-feeding the damn thing already. Personally, I shall be getting out my best whippy stick: I remember the fun I had persuading Serge not to try his luck when my back was turned..........No, not like that; you know what I mean!

 

Merci, Mike: c'est gentil!

Ah say! Ah say!

Never ever turn your back on a cock!

Ralph - are you sure you've posted in the right thread? You'd be a contender in the "strange debauchery" caption thread with that one!
