I know, they seemed such a good idea at the time, but kind of fell on their arse in the end product. Oh well, gay recognition at last, not all bad then.

Nice tyings, some great combos of colour there, like the yellow guinea fowl.

Don't like the green and red stripey butt. Like some one dreesed up to go out and left their pj bottoms on.
