I'm not the pheasant plucker

I am not the pheasant plucker

I'm the pheasant plucker's son


I only pluck the pheasants when the pheasant plucker's gone......


'cept that they are ducks, and not plucked, and I'm a girl.....

but it was either that or a shot of me having an existential softie- making breakdown....

I love that tongue twister, was only saying it to my boys the other day, who of course had no idea of the fun of it except for the difficulty in saying it. They thought I was quackers!! Lovely legs by the way ;-)

Gina said...

Ha! That rhyme takes me back. Loving those stripey legs.

sue niven said...

that tongue twister is new to me, Love the legs!

Gillian aka Silly Gilly said...

Glad to hear that you are not completely plucked and still able to be hilariously conversant!

Stomper Girl said...

Gosh, aren't those stripey legs fabulous.

trash said...

So...this is you running around like a headless duck then?

Georgia said...

So our version (which my very irresponsible parents used to get me to say when I was VERY young- maybe 3) was "...and I'll keep on plucking pheasants 'till the pheasant plucker comes". Funny to see this here. Loving those stripey legs- can't wait to see the finished product. Will they be fuzzy ducks?

Simone de Klerk said...

Love this post!

A Peppermint Penguin said...

So to agree with all before... those are some great gams.

Not just a nervous breakdown but an existential breakdown! Wow. That's some dedication to the madness. Plucky Lady.

Cheers,
AJ

Love the stripy legs! Hope you're not going too quackers. I'm sure it will all be worth it in the end.

I wonder what an actual break down softie would look like????

Hope you get your ducks in a row, Jodie and that they don't drive you quackers in the process. ;o)
