Intro
"Long, long ago there was a magical time, when all the creatures
from legends, myths and fairytales roamed the earth. One, however,
was much too silly to be believed in. It was the Fiddley Foodle Bim
Bam Boodle Oo-diddly Doodle Oodle Bird. One picture of him existed
in an ancient magic book discovered by a couple of potty explorers,
who were lost, exploring in a sieve (serves them right!). The book
was found, one christmas night by their lonely young son Algernon.
He saw something really special in the friendly face of the creature,
made a wish upon his Lucky Star, and to his amazement the
Fiddley-Foodle Bird came to life. And this, of course, is where
our story really begins..."
