Techy went to a family funeral today. The favourite colour of the deceased had been yellow and mourners were asked to wear something yellow in her honour.
The funeral was held in a modern American-style private crematorium with windows, more or less floor-to-ceiling, along one side of the chapel.
Techy sat next to a window. As soon as the ceremony began, a tiny yellow bird began flying up and down outside the window beside him and pecking at the glass. This happened only next to the one windowpane where Techy could clearly see it.
The bird left and returned a few times, always to that windowpane, all through the service. Others too noticed it and remarked that the deceased had sent it to comfort them. Some became quite emotional.
OK, Birdie was after tasty insects. But still, eh.
