A full house attended Thursday’s workshop on pricing the gifts we leave on doorsteps. Facilitated by Dr. Ottoline Pounce, the session explored how to put a value on a vole, a feather, or a half eaten lizard.
- A whole mouse: 4 dollars equivalent, plus delivery.
- A mouse with its head missing: 3 dollars, with an explanation.
- A single bird wing: priceless, but ask for 5.
Attendees agreed that humans rarely express gratitude, and that a loud scream should be interpreted as a standing ovation. Several members left early to practise on their own porches.
