A chick with half an egg still stuck to it.


Captions

Martha struts the catwalk in the very latest of headgear from Paris.
In spite of the mockery, Henry stuck with his ambition to be a turtle.
Really, Sandra, you need to come out of your shell.
Professor Egbert strides back to the drawing board after the failed test of his new bulletproof armour.
Never mind the quality, consider the wonderful Japanese artwork.
They warned me that, if I ran for president, I’d have eggs thrown at me.
You won’t be laughing when the sky falls on our heads.
Go backpacking, they said, go backpacking.
