Someone must have fucked up at the zoo,

is a great opening line, and also a clear and succinct description of the premise of the story. Someone has fucked up, and now there are flamingos, bright and pink, across the grey backdrop of Wales.

Equal parts funny and sweet, just a little bit terrifying and a little bit thought-provoking, this was a bright gem of a story in a doldrum day.
