In the summer of 2004 Pericles the Decoy Duck spent a month in The Priory to get over his worm and bird seed addiction.

However, it refuses to die.

Day 3
__
I had my first group therapy session today.It was a Macrame class. Ron came too. That was my idea. I hoped he might be able to weave a safety net for his nocturnal wardrobe-leaping sessions.
Unfortunately it looks as though ducks are not really designed for Macrame. Even using my bill as well as both wings and my webbed feet, I was hopeless. That WWII pigeon vest was a bit of a handicap as well.
Luckily Ron was brilliant at it but he insists on weaving only nooses.
I'm not sure he's really getting into the spirit of things.
