10  (True story!)

Some time ago, I was visiting my (new!) mother-in-law. The whole family was there. The night before, I had watched a TV show about hypnotising chickens. It looked very easy on TV but I didn't have a clue how to do it myself. Somehow, I convinced my mother-in-law to let me hypnotise one of her chickens. Believe it or not, after I had struggled to cath the flapping bird, I actually managed to hypnotise it. You have no idea what a ridiculous sight it was!
