Sacré Prosper




1st soldier with a keen interest in birds : Who goes there?
King Arthur : It is I, Arthur, son of Uther Pendragon, from the castle of Camelot. King of the Britons, defeater of the Saxons, Sovereign of all England!
1st soldier with a keen interest in birds : Pull the other one!
King Arthur : I am, and this is my trusty servant Patsy. We have ridden the length and breadth of the land in search of knights who will join me in my court at Camelot. I must speak with your lord and master.
1st soldier with a keen interest in birds : What? Ridden on a horse?
King Arthur : Yes!
1st soldier with a keen interest in birds : You're using coconuts!
King Arthur : What?
1st soldier with a keen interest in birds : You've got two empty halves of coconut and you're bangin' 'em together.
King Arthur : So? We have ridden since the snows of winter covered this land, through the kingdom of Mercia, through...
1st soldier with a keen interest in birds : Where'd you get the coconuts?
King Arthur : We found them.
1st soldier with a keen interest in birds : Found them? In Mercia? The coconut's tropical!
King Arthur : What do you mean?
1st soldier with a keen interest in birds : Well, this is a temperate zone
King Arthur : The swallow may fly south with the sun or the house martin or the plover may seek warmer climes in winter, yet these are not strangers to our land?
1st soldier with a keen interest in birds : Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?
King Arthur : Not at all. They could be carried.
1st soldier with a keen interest in birds : What? A swallow carrying a coconut?
King Arthur : It could grip it by the husk!

 Je rappelle que Prosper est un coq Orphington doré, anglais, et que son nom complet est  Prosper de Camembert ( Prosper of Camembert), puisque nous sommes allés le chercher dans un élevage tout proche du village de Camembert. Sa course étant  génétiquement similaire à celle du Roi Arthur, on va l'appeler désormais King Prosper.

Mais oui, un compliment de la sorte venant de toi me bouleverse...
Néanmoins, les hirondelles n'étant pas encore arrivées avec leurs noix de coco, j'ai du embaucher un bruiteur qualifié.

c'est pas Joe Dassin qui chantait: "tagada, tagada, voilà les Daltons"? Cher Joe Dassin....
