Hmmm....
wing + leg = fracture.
Ever wonder why they are so mean? Because they are so beautiful. The prettiest girls are always the meanest bitches.(local observation).
I find it very interesting how the Queen can just "claim" all the swans in the country. What'd she do? Have a whim? OK............. "let me see now.......I really need to own every swan in the country. I'll call Tony & have him arrange it! Anybody wants a swan around here goes through me, mind you!"
Does she own all the swans in other countries, or maybe just a controlling intrest? Intriguing, to say the least.
British Terrorism: Swan abuse. heehee..................
