A woman with a wonderfully full head of red hair has to buy her indulgent husband a birthday gift. She shuns the traditional sporting and gadget ones and alights on a pet shop where she buys him a very rare "crunch bird". He gets home, not exactly in the birthday mood after a day of paying her bills ... , and discovers his new friend. His words of welcome could have been better chosen. You see, he isn't aware of the trigger phrase! It's short and succinct and I quite enjoyed it.
