Yes, yes, I realize the turtle and elephants are about Discworld. But, hey, if you don't like it, do your own blog.
Here's the quote:
" ... but then a grandfather bird on the cliff above was throwing up (the ugly-looking things didn't just eat everything, they ate all of everything, and carefully threw up anything that didn't fit, taste right, or had woken up and started to protest), ... "
My beloved Bouvier des Flandres, Pete, died many years ago. I used to say that he'd anything on the general principle that if it wasn't meant to be food he could always throw it up later.
Reading that line in Pratchett's book brought many memories of Pete flooding back. Thanks Mr. Pratchett.
