I was sending a text standing on a friend's doorstep because the cellphone signal was very poor in the house. Something fell between my nose and the phone (without touching either!). I looked up to see a bird fly off the gutter. Now that's what I call being lucky.

You might be lucky but the poor bird has probably been banished from the firing range.
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I'm one of the people who would have laughed had he not missed.
I'd probably have laughed too Pauline whilst I was wiping it off!
DeleteOh my! Often, I think, when they take off, that's what happens. Careful where you stand, GB!
ReplyDeleteIt's come to something lisa when one can't even stand in a doorway without the aerial terrorists having a go.
DeleteWell, you ARE a lucky man.
ReplyDeleteSure am Monica.
DeleteYou are a lucky guy....but I think the bird is probably swearing to himself, "DARN I can't believe I missed him!"
ReplyDeleteAlthough I have a mental picture of you trying your best to clean that stuff off from your cell phone and swearing at that bird....
Cleaning it out of my hair would have been a bit more of a challenge. Mind you given the paucity up top perhaps not.
DeleteIndeed, you are lucky! yuk!
ReplyDeleteNorma everyone deserves a bit of luck sometime.
DeleteHahaha! You've captured the 'moment' quite well, GB - glad it wasn't a self portrait ;)
ReplyDeleteSo am I Heather.
