Bowie squints at us over his bifocals, not really sure why we're in his office. He shuffles through some papers, finds a page that refers to us and glances at it. "Erm, it appears that you have been made redundant, and your position here is no longer available. We had some potted plants delivered yesterday, and we need the space in which you are standing to accommodate them. Please clean out your desks and be out of the building in..."(Bowie glances at his mantelpiece clock),"...in about 15 minutes." We stand before him in stunned silence as Bowie resumes shuffling papers on his desk. He glances up again, surprised to see us still standing in front of him. We hang our heads and shuffle out of the room.
Her Royal Highness must be indulging in many pancakes this morning. A demand she clearly made of her humans in return for them being allowed to be gone all day yesterday 'acting' in their silly 'birdplay'. I'm sure where ever she is; she is clearly being rewarded mightily. Luv to the Queen! We wait humbly (kneeling) for her appearance.

Beware of the semi-lopped disapproval
The firing squad awaits the drop of the ear...
Bun is apparently going off half-cocked.

@Janet:
I'm not surprised we are dismissed. As Bowie is pointing out with his ears, we are (sorry, WERE) contracted to arrive at work for 9 o'clock.
Tardiness (and TARDiness) will not be tolerated!
Oh! Bowie seems to have changed it to 8AM. Oh well, we're doomed anyway!
And here I thought he was just politely signalling an upcoming left turn!
Ground Control to Major Tom..er, Major Disapproval...C'mon, nobody made a "Bowie" reference yet?
Where is my Sunday Cinnamon? She always makes my day!!
Sunday Cinnamon is a privilege.
It is NOT A RIGHT.
We are but hoomins and we must know our place.
You are so right. Lack of Sunday Cinnamon left me bereft and not thinking straight. I hang my head in shame and accept my extreme disapproval.

It is not that often you see that kind of brilliant contrast in fur color. And suddenly I crave chocolate truffles...
Yes, Bowie is GORGEOUS! What a lovely BUN!
omg... Bowie looks like a grumpy old man version of my little Noggie
