Coco was more than usually annoyed; he was downright angry:
‘which of you freaks called me a clown?’ he barked.
It was Bum Face Martin but he was never going to own up so
the swans confessed instead.
‘I knew it,’ said Coco. ‘Never trust a bird that’s named
after matches.’
Bum Face Martin sniggered and whispered ‘clown’ but Coco
didn’t seem to hear, he was busy banging on about swans: ‘evil critters with
long beaks and stupid feet!’
Bum Face Martin wondered about saying ‘just like clowns’ but
he thought better of it, there was no way of knowing how Coco would react when
he was in this kind of mood.
After enduring a tirade of insults the swans flew off and
Coco turned to Bum Face Martin and said:
‘I knew it was you, Bum Face, but I
just don’t like swans!’
