"Tandar, it’s tomorrow. I heard them talking. Ten o’clock tomorrow."

"Great. If Rosso is right about the studio place we’re in business."

"Hang on Tandar. How are we going to get in? It’s not like they’ll leave a door open."

"Lets worry about that when we get there Zingo. Anyhow here comes Rosso."

"Did you find it Rosso?"

"Yeah, it’s a studio alright. But I don’t know whether it’s the right one."

"We’ll take a chance. I think they’d go to the nearest one."

"This is going to be great. Munchies here we come."

"Alright, don’t get too excited. I think we’d better meet here at about 9.30 and go over as a group."

"Okay Tandar see ya."

"Yeah, see ya tomorrow Tandar."

"What’s all the hurry?"

"Nothing... it’s just that if we want to use the birdbath over at the hospital we have to queue."

"What do you mean queue? Go some other time when it’s not busy."

"W..e..ll we just thought that y’know it wouldn’t hurt to look clean."

"I thought we agreed we were going just for the munchies."

"Yeah, well... we’ve got to blend in remember. It’s not that we want to look like models.".

"No that’s right Tandar the last thing we want to do is ponce around like film stars."

"By the way d’yer think we should have dark glasses? They’ll probably have bright lights in the studio. We wouldn’t want to get blinded. How would we see the munchies?"

"Sheesh, I’ve got a bad feeling about this. I’ll see you all tomorrow."

Tomorrow

"Right we’re all here. Kalki why are you hanging upside down off that branch?"

"No reason Tandar."

"Well get a grip of yourself and sit up properly."

"Um that’s a bit of a problem. Y’see I got some of that shiny stuff humans put on their head. Just for my crest mind. Trouble is it’s all over my feet. It makes gripping a bit tricky. Look, I can land on a twig okay but, oow-erk, see I sort of slip round."

"Don’t tell me Kalki, I don’t want to know. Right, we’re....Piki what on earth is that?"

"It’s an eyepatch Tandar. I just thought...."

"Don’t think Piki, just take it off."

"Yeah featherhead, you rosellas have enough trouble seeing with two eyes."

"Listen you, I’ve got eyes like a hawk."

"Brains like one more likely."

"Ha, you can talk. Who was it put that bubbly stuff in the birdbath?"

"There’s nothing wrong with that."

"Tell that to the small birds. There were finches floating all over the place trapped in bubbles."

Alright, alright, you two, just cool it. And what’s wrong with you Kaegi?"

"Just a bit of cramp Tandar. I’ll be all right."

"Cramp? Why would you get cramp?"

"Well I was practising my signature. Just in case."

"In case of what?"

"Well autograph hunters. You see....."

"Look, I’ll tell you one last time. We’re going for the munchies. We’re going to sneak in, get those and sneak out. No-one will even notice we were there. Okay?"

"Okay Tandar, only....."

"Just follow me."
