I turned back. “Still Angela,” I said, “you’re trying to trick me.” Angela cawed with delight, “well done Freddie.” I played the game five more times and identified each crow successfully without any more corvine trickery. “That was fun, young Freddie, we should be heading off soon for a bit ofContinue reading “It’s Me – Chapter 25”

It’s Me – Chapter 23
I scampered down the back stairs, holding my breath due to the smell, and arrived in the children’s section. No offence children, but I’m not interested in your books at the moment.
