Ostrich Weekly Forecast: Apr 28

A sunny week. Won't that be nice.

"Weekly Forecast" crows the rusty iron weathercock.

The good news, what with this week's papal conclave and the martian invasion, is that the weather should be fairly nice. Our weatherman predicts a pleasant stretch of days, which should help, I expect. And while a good soaking rain might have put a wrench in the robot uprising, a little sunshine always makes a rough day better!

The moon's extra close this week, so expect your hair to grow unusually fast, which could be disconcerting if you don't prefer a mustache. Also tides and things, but that stuff's complicated so who knows. Great news for cakes, though. If you've ever wanted to bake a truly airy genoise sponge, give it a go! (Might be worth making extra for the visitors.)
