The Islamisation of the world Birds began falling from the sky, first a few but then millions of birds fell dead to the ground one had to take cover for not being killed by the mass of feathered deaths. The sky was poisoned by our underarm sprays and other stuff we used to cover our natural human scent, days of silence but not for long, insects had no enemy bred fast and we slithered ankle deep in bird droppings. Summer, not a pleasure everyone sat indoors feeding canary birds while swarms of insects clouded the sun. a burqa that covered the whole body was the solution, aftershave lotion and perfumes were forbidden and there were aroma patrols walked around the neighbourhood 50 lashes and six months jail for anyone who wore the slightest a whiff of perfume; and overnight we became Muslims.
