[+] for the shaking and furling. Great imagery. |

// easily ... convenience // not for the duck. |

Or, indeed, a duck's feathers. |
|

It's a shying crame that there's no such thing as a
deather. |
|
| |
But there is 'breather' and 'dolly'. Actually, that could be quite a selling point, and easily done with a set of bellows. |
|
| |
Yes, got that, but it's not quite right. |
|

Ancillary equipment to be sold would be a strap-on bill and
oil gland kit. [+] |

//Is there a word for a 3-way spoonerism ?// |
|
| |
I don't believe so, although it's broadly similar to
(indeed, a special case of) arichosis. If there were
to be a name, it should probably be "Shegfieldism"
after Arthur Arthur Shegfield. He wrote a number of
largely (and justifiably) forgotten verses in which
successive lines contained the same words, but with
the initial letters (or at least syllables) rotated. |

//superhyb...superbh...// Artificial duck oil. |
|

//deather// well there's "luck leather": not so much for the cow of course. |
|
| |
//Imagery// I spent a good part of the day trying to insert
"Upon opening, the feathers splay a little before nestling into position, to unruffle any that may have become jostled out of place during handling"
or words to that effect, but it kept throwing the feng shui of "meticulous mechanical furling" way off. |
|

//swan// yeah good luck with that: a few discombobulated ducks or geese are hardly worth noticing but peacocks and swans usually have owners. § x1 |
|
| |
Sorry, pun. I wants one, I does. |
|
| |
Well, you could use your own swan: bare scaffolds are available on backorder for custom designers; applying the feathers is a simple matter of inserting them into their holders. |
|

R&D is supposed to be working on a new spiral design, but the door's locked and all you can hear inside is giggling, so it could be awhile. |

I'm wondering if, in the same fashion that a standard umbrella colloquially became known as a "brolly", would a feather brolly become commonly known as a "folly"? And, if so, would the metal ribs of the umbrella assembly be perceived as a "cage"? The resultant device might therefore be a "Cage aux Folly". |

<stops preparing special au naturel "duck's arse feathers" one-offs for [MaxwellBuchanan] and [bigsleep] long enough to add [jurist] to the list> |

I was out with my bow, yesterday, shooting at the
butts. |
|
| |
Yes, I was wondering who put that into the Pheasant Plucking department's Suggestion Box. |

(actually all I can imagine is broken arrows from glancing off the concrete... scare the crap out of the spotters though which is usually the point of the exercise) |

"Parapluie de canard", surely?
Del: One of
my most favouritist meals is Duck à l'Orange, but I
don't know how to say that in French.
Rodney: It's canard.
Del: You can say that again bruv! |
|
| |
So it's Canard and all orange, you say? |
|
| |
I'm down with this... and I totally read the title wrong. |
