Giant mad swan on the loose.

Was in the town park earlier and he came at me out the blue - was after my corned beef sarnies.
Managed to fend him off for a bit but he kept coming until we ended up rolling down an enbankment in tandem.

I know!
Ordinarily I would have given them sandwiches but I thought - "no! Why should I?"
Well after he chased me across the bandstand, I quickly slipped an attendant a fiver to let me go in a pedalo.
Was making my way across the lake in the centre of the park - turned back and the swan was still coming at me! (not in a pedalo)
I always make corned beef when I'm going away.
That is just a myth. The only way a swan could break your arm is if it fell on it from 40,000 feet
Jeez !! I f you didn't have bad luck , you wouldn't have any!
Yes, swans prefer to drown their victims..

Hmm, I wish I had known that earlier.
I was making my getaway through the tennis courts and thought I'd lost him until I saw him out the corner of my eye hissing at a young girl and her mother who had ice creams.
Reminds me of Jackanory
Thanks buddy.
So, you attempted escape by entering the swan's natural habitat?
If it had come after you in a pedalo, this would have been the thread of the decade.
Now I'm totally disappointed
Are you running away to join the circus?
I panicked. The swan had reared up on it's hind legs and was coming at me.
Maybe, the main reason is I owe money.

I only got as far as the park sorry, we never arranged a date did we??
me too, especially as I read in a pedalo first time round
I sometimes go and take photos of swans at a countryside park near my home, I read somewhere that instead of bread you should give them leafy greens so I took along a bag of tesco's finest garden salad, after flinging some lettuce at them in the water I waited expectantly with my camera to take photos of happy swans instead I got huffy swans swimming as fast as they could to the other side of the lake where little kids were waiting with bread bags full of sliced dry white tesco's cheapest
