Of all the joys of being a kid again, falling asleep in a restaurant and then being carried out whilst not being judged was probably my favourite. Try that this weekend, I dare you.
Another favourite was the the intricate process of wriggling out a loose tooth, twisting and turning until the roots could no longer resist and the reward held aloft like a trophy. Of course nothing is how it used to be, like last week when we saw an Olympic javelin gold medallist use his skills to yank out his daughter’s tooth.
This week’s extraction is even weirder, as some trusting young kid lets his parrot climb into his mouth and go to town on the prize. Apparently the parrot is something of an expert, however, having performed the procedure four times prior to this attempt.
Let’s hope the bird doesn’t develop a lust for blood, anyone who has ever been attacked by a savage one-eyed street pigeon in Cape Town will know it’s a slippery slope.
