Perry at the Priory
In the summer of 2004 Pericles the Decoy Duck spent a month in The Priory to get over his worm and bird seed addiction.
This blog was originally set up to chronicle his experiences and the inevitable escape attempts.
However, it refuses to die.

Day 8
__
I am a Duck! GET ME OUT OF HERE!Unfortunately yesterday's little outburst has landed me in the cooler for 24 hours. I'm only able to post this as they've let me out temporarily while my cell is being reupholstered.
I'm a little better today. They've got me on a new treatment: Prozac, Radio 2 and The Daily Mail. I can understand how the first two might help but can't see what use is served by a copy of the Daily Nazi. And the side effects are pretty nasty...
[FAAAAAART]
...OK, now I see what the paper's for.
Ron threw me a catcher's mitt and a baseball as I was frog-marched away. I appreciated the thought but one day I'm going to have to explain to Ron that there's a reason a winged creature never made it to the Baseball Hall of Fame...
However, when the nesting urge is upon me, the ball will make a good egg substitute...I feel we have bonded already.
I miss Ethel
