Still in Manhattan, where I've just escaped from a load of vampires and werewolves, and now in 18th century upstate New York, in a severe winter, and I've just had twins!

I'm in Labrador, Canada, in the 1960s/70s and I'm chatting to an owl. The more he heard, the less he spoke and the less he spoke the more he heard! Why can't I be like that wise old owl? :D
